GRADE REPLACEMENT POLICY
Students can replace a grade of a “D” or “F” by attempting the
class a second time.
Only Freshman and Sophomore level courses (courses that start
with a “1” or “2”) such as HIST 1301 or POLS 2310 can be grade
replaced.
Grade replacement at UTEP can only be completed with courses
taken at UTEP.
COURSE REPEAT POLICY
Courses attempted a third time will not grade replace, UNLESS
one of the previous attempts was a “W” (Withdraw).
If a student attempts the same course for a third time, there will be
an extra $100.00 fee PER CREDIT HOUR to retake the course.
WITHDRAW LIMIT POLICY
Students are limited to only 6 class withdrawals during their
undergraduate career.
Courses dropped before Census day do not count against the
limit.
Seventh and subsequent course drops will be recorded with
grades of “WF.”
This includes student and faculty initiated drops and courses
dropped at other Texas public institutions (i.e. EPCC).
An academic hold will prevent registration after 3 drops.
