Retaking A Class Policy

Students are encouraged to retake required classes. Students who pass a course and choose to retake it will have CR (credit) placed on the lower grade in their transcript. The credited course does not apply toward the content graduation requirements but is used in elective credit necessary for graduation. A failed class that is repeated is given an NC (no credit). Both NC and CR do not change a student's GPA. Students are not permitted to retake classes that they have received a B- or higher in.
