ÁùºÏ²ÊÍøÖ·´óÈ«

Academic Forgiveness refers to ways in which current ÁùºÏ²ÊÍøÖ·´óÈ« students may recover from prior academic challenges without harming the student’s academic standing and includes Repeated Courses, Academic Reprieve, and Academic Renewal.

There are three categories that fall under Academic Forgiveness:

• Repeated Courses: Students will be allowed to repeat a course. Students with grades below a "C" may replace the grade with the repeated attempt (maximum of four courses, not to exceed 18 hours). The original grade will still appear on the transcript, but will not count in the GPA. ÁùºÏ²ÊÍøÖ·´óÈ« will automatically process the first four repeat attempts - no formal request needed.
• Academic Reprieve: Students may request that up to two consecutive semesters be removed from their GPA, as long as other policy requirements are met.
• Academic Renewal: Students who have had academic trouble in the past and are returning to college after an absence or under circumstances that warrant a fresh academic start may request academic renewal, as long as other policy requirements are met.

All forgiven courses will not be calculated in the student’s GPA, but will appear on the student’s transcript (denoted with either an * , ** or $). Academic reprieve and renewal, once granted, may or may not be recognized by other colleges and universities.

Academic Reprieve and Renewal Request Forms are located in on the "Account" page.
