WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IF I REPEAT A COURSE?

    Any student who is repeating a course should notify the Registration Office so that his/her cumulative grade point average can be recalculated without the impact of the former grade. Students who repeat a course must file a Repeated Course Form with the Registration Office so that his/her cumulative grade point average may be recalculated without the impact of the former grade.

    Both the original letter grade earned and the grade earned upon repeating the course will appear on the student’s transcript. An “R” is placed beside the original course to indicate it has been repeated and the semester GPA is modified to reflect the exclusion of the course. A repeated course message will also appear on the student’s transcript at the beginning of the term of the original course.

Please note the following:

1. Students may not use the Pass/Fail grading option to repeat a course.
2. If the course number and/or titles do not match exactly, the student must get the written permission of the department chairperson and the endorsement of his/her college dean in order to use the "Repeated Course Rule" (UNH Senate Rule 07.111). “
3. The Registrar’s Office does periodic reviews of students’ records and will make adjustments for repeated courses even if the students fail to submit a “Repeated Course Form.”
4. The second grade is calculated into the student's G.P.A. regardless of whether it is higher or lower than the original grade.
5.  If you repeat a course that you have previously passed more than once it may affect your financial aid award.

Return Repeated Course Forms to the Registration Office, Stoke Hall, by the end of the semester in which you are repeating the course.
