Repeat a Course Policy

For all undergraduate students at Jackson State University who repeat a course(s), the highest grade earned will be used in calculating the grade point average. However, the semester hours for the repeated course will remain as a part of the attempted hours.

  1. To repeat a course in which a low grade has been recorded, a student must register for the same course.
  2. A course repeated for the purpose of replacing a low grade must be taken at Jackson State University.
  3. The grade for the most recently repeated course will be computed in the cumulative grade point average. However, all grades earned will be retained on the student’s official transcript.
