Repeated Courses

With the permission of the department, a student may repeat a course taken at Rutgers in which a grade of F was earned.*  If the grade is improved, the student may request that the original grade be removed from the calculation of the cumulative grade-point average.  The original grade of F, however, remains on the transcript.  The repeated course must be taken at Rutgers.

The option to repeat a course may be used only once for a given course.  If a student fails a course a second time, only the second F is computed into the cumulative grade-point average. 

In order for a change resulting from the repetition of a course to be made to a student's cumulative grade-point average, a course repeat form must be complete by the dean.

*Departmental permission is necessary only for School 07 courses.  Theater arts majors may repeat only general theater requirements and liberal arts courses.
