Repeating a Course
A course may be repeated a maximum of two times. Under extenuating circumstances, a student may request permission to enroll in the course again with the written approval of the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Student Affairs.
Students who wish to request an additional attempt beyond the maximum must submit a written statement to their divisional dean. This request must include:
- The course the student wishes to repeat
- An explanation of the challenges or circumstances that prevented prior success
- A plan outlining the steps the student will take to be successful in the future
The divisional dean will review the request and make a recommendation. The request, along with the dean’s recommendation, will then be forwarded to the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Student Affairs through the office’s administrative assistant.
If the request is approved, the Executive Vice President will forward authorization to the Office of Enrollment Services/Registrar so the student may register for the course. If the request is not approved at any stage in the process, the student will be notified in writing by the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Student Affairs.
Exceptions to this policy may be outlined in specific program requirements.
