Means…DO OVER!
Reminder…
• When a student seeks to clear a D/F grade through
validation, both the original grade and the grade earned in
the higher-level course will be used in calculating the GPA.
Only a repeat will replace the D/F grade.
• Pre Calculus will validate the entire high school math
sequence, if completed with “C” or better each semester.
• A course in which a D/F is earned can be repeated with a
course that has the same curriculum, even if the course title is
not identical (e.g., Algebra 1 and Beginning Algebra). If a C or
better is earned, the original D/F will not be included in the
GPA calculation.
• A course in which a grade of C was earned cannot be
repeated*.
• There is no limit to the overall number of repeated courses an
applicant may present, but each course can be repeated only
once*.
Students must list all courses, including the original course, on their
application.
