Advising FAQs
If you pass the course, you do not need to retake it unless a certain grade is specifically required, eg. writing (WRIT 121) or math core, in which a C- or better is required. If you fail a course required for your major, you must take it again.
Only the most recent grade will be used to compute your GPA and count for your credit total, but the course and each grade will be listed on your transcript every time you take it.
Only the required core classes must be C or higher. They include writing, math and verbal core classes. For all others, a D is a passing grade, but a 2.0 GPA is required for graduation.
Graduation forms must be filed by the student one year in advance. See your advisor to be sure your program is finalized and obtain the necessary paperwork.
Restricted entry courses require that the student physically go to the department that offers the course. They will enroll you or provide the appropriate paperwork.
