Course Repetition
You have two attempts to complete a class. If both attempts are unsuccessful and you want to repeat the same class for the third time, submit a petition to the Academic Records and Standards Committee before enrolling in the semester. Petition forms are available in the Admissions & Records office or online.
Once the Committee approves your petition, you will be allowed to register for the class in person. Courses have repeatability limitations. Review the Catalog for the maximum repeat units available and a full description of requirements.
