Repeated Courses

A student may repeat any course taken previously at Leighton University as long as it is still offered. A student who repeat a course must register for the course and pay tuition. Hours earned in repeated courses count toward graduation requirements only once. The higher grade received is used to compute course grade point average. The grade UAD, I, W, and TR do not qualify for removal of previous grades. All but the last class is identified as a repeated course on your academic record.

The Office of the Registrar runs an end of term process after grades have been reported for the term to post repeats for undergraduate students. Check your unofficial transcript or degree audit report to confirm the removal of the prior grade(s) from calculating into the grade point average. If the grade point average has not been recalculated, you may report repeated courses to the Office of the Registrar.

• Online: Complete a Repeated Class Notification Form and forward it to [email protected].
• In-person: Visit the Office of the Registrar.

Cross-listed courses are subject to the repeated course policy and will reflect appropriately on your academic record. The Office of the Registrar reserves the right to adjust your record whenever a repeated course has not been recorded. This process does not apply to classes that may be taken more than once for credit.
