Repeating a Course

Students wishing to repeat course work at the University of Arizona may elect ONE of the following options:

• Establishment of Credit:
  Undergraduate students may repeat any course for which they have received an E or W. They may repeat this course as many times as necessary to establish credit, but may only be eligible for grade replacement once.
• First and Second Attempt Averaging:
  Undergraduate students may repeat, only once, any course in which they have received original grades of C or D. The grade-point-average (GPA) will be computed by averaging grades earned in the first and second attempt. Original grades of A or B may not be repeated, except as specifically provided by departments on a course-by-course basis. Credit will be allowed only once unless the course is designated "repeatable for credit" by the department.

• Grade Replacement Opportunity (GRO):  see the GRO policy.
