The highest grade from all attempts is calculated. The credit hours are counted only once per course. A student may repeat a course for which an E grade was earned. If the student subsequently passes, only a passing grade and those semester hours completed, with be used in determining the cumulative average. If a course is failed more than once and subsequently passed, then the passing grade will replace only one failing grade in the determination of the cum avg.
All grades remain on the permanent record card.
A passing grade will not replace an F or a U grade. A-D cannot be repeated. However, a policy change is now in the Senate to repeat Ds. Courses that are illegally repeated will not be used in computing the cum. If the course is no longer offered the student appeals and is required to work with the dept.
