Course Repeat Policy
An undergraduate student who desires to repeat courses in order to improve his/her GPA at SFA, must repeat those courses at SFA. Effective Fall 2000 the following rules apply:
A. For any course that is repeated once at SFA, the higher of the two grades will be used to determine the GPA.
B. If a course is repeated more than once at SFA, the total number of hours attempted and all grades earned for that course will be used to determine the GPA. Credit hours for courses taken at other institutions to replace credit hours earned at SFA may be used to meet graduation credit hour requirements, but grades from transferred courses will not change the GPA based on courses taken at SFA. Only grades earned at SFA will be used for calculating GPA.
Courses taken at SFA prior to the Fall 2000 Semester will be grandfathered regarding this policy. Additional information can be found in the Policy and Procedures Manual for Academic Affairs under Semester Grades.
