Repeat Policy
Courses may be repeated, thereby removing the first attempt from the grade point average calculation. Only University of the Incarnate Word courses can replace courses recorded at the University of the Incarnate Word. Transfer work, CLEP, or departmental examinations cannot be used to repeat a course recorded at the University of the Incarnate Word. The highest grade earned will be used in the calculation of the grade point average. Courses used to repeat recorded grades must be the exact course (i.e., same course number and title) as the original course for which the repeat is intended. While other courses may substitute for degree course requirements, they will not remove the original recorded grade from the grade point average calculation.
No undergraduate course may be attempted more than three times without prior permission of the department. A grade of “W” is considered an attempt.
