Repeating Courses

Students may repeat a Centre College course graded “D” or “U”, in which case only the most recent grade will be computed into the cumulative grade point average. In some cases, a student may be allowed to repeat a course graded “C-“.  The course must be repeated at Centre College. The original grade (“C-“, “D” or “U”) remains on the transcript. When repeating a course in which a “C-“ or “D” was received, no additional course credit toward graduation is granted. Grades of “U” in convocations always remain a part of the cumulative grade point average.

Notes:

1. Students repeating a letter-graded course must take the course for a letter grade the second time to take advantage of the repeated-grade policy. Likewise, students repeating a pass/unsatisfactory-graded course must take the course on a pass/unsatisfactory basis the second time to take advantage of the repeated-grade policy.
2. Students may not use the repeated-grade policy to return to the College following graduation to improve their grade point average. Grade averages are restarted following graduation for students who return for additional course work.
3. The College is not obligated to provide students with an opportunity to repeat any course.
