Repeating Courses

学生可以重修已获得a -或更低学分的课程. If a higher grade is earned upon repeating a course, 只计算两个等级中较高者，以确定累积平均绩点(GPA)。, although both grades will be recorded on transcripts. 学生不得重修他或她已经获得“A”级的课程.

No course may be repeated solely in order to increase the number of credits earned in courses where the credit hours have been changed. 该课程只会在毕业要求和总学时计算中被计算一次.

Full-time students who elect to repeat a course for which credit has already been received should register for 12 credit hours relevant to their degree program in addition to the repeated course in order to remain eligible for TAP awards. Full-time students who register for remedial courses should also register for at least six credits of non-remedial credit courses. However, during the first term of funding, 全日制学生只需要注册至少三个学分的非补习学分课程. 社区大学的学生总共有资格获得六个学期的TAP资助.
