Title 3359 - University of Akron
Chapter 3359-60 - Academics In General
Section 3359-60-03.3 - Repeating courses
Current through all regulations passed and filed through September 16, 2024
Undergraduate students may repeat a course twice. Undergraduate students may repeat a course more than twice with the permission of the dean of their degree-granting college or, if they are not yet admitted to a degree-granting college, by the dean of their intended degree-granting college or, if they have not yet declared a major, by the dean of the college offering the course. All course repeats are subject to the following conditions:
(A) To receive a new grade of "A" through "F" a student may repeat a course in which the previously received grade was a "C-," "D+," "D," "D-," "F," "CR," "NC," or "AUD."
(B) To receive a new grade of "CR" or "NC," a student may repeat a course in which the previously received grade was a "NC." Registrations under the "CR/NC" option are subject to the restrictions in the "CR/NC" policy.
(C) To receive a new grade of "A" through "F," or "CR" or "NC," a student may repeat a course in which the previously received grade was an "AUD." Registrations under the "CR/NC" option are subject to the restrictions in the "CR/NC" policy.
(D) A course in which the previously received grade was "A" through "F," or "CR" or "NC," may be repeated for a grade of "AUD"; however, the grade of "AUD" does not replace the previously received grade.
(E) With the dean's permission, a student may substitute another course if the previous course is no longer offered.
(F) Grades for all attempts at a course will appear on the student's official academic record.
(G) Only the grade for the last attempt at a course at the university of Akron will be used in calculating the grade point average. Attempts prior to the last attempt cannot be used to satisfy curricular requirements.
(H) A student who wishes to receive credit or satisfy a prerequisite by repeating a course at another institution must satisfy the conditions and receive the permissions specified for transient students in paragraph (B) of rule 3359-60-03.1 of the Administrative Code. A course repeated at another institution for transient credit will count toward the two repeats allowed without the dean's permission. A course repeated at another institution will not be used in the calculation of the grade point average.
(I) Regardless of where a course is taken, credit for the course or its equivalent will apply only once toward meeting degree requirements.
