Grade Replacement

In accordance with UNC System policy 400.1.5, undergraduate students may repeat up to 16 hours of undergraduate coursework during their academic career. All attempts of a course will be recorded on a student’s official transcript and count towards their attempted hours. However, when a course is repeated, only the highest grade earned will be used in the calculation of a student’s GPA, up to the 16-credit-hour limit.

Students with extenuating circumstances that may warrant repeat coursework beyond the 16-hour limit permitted by UNC System policy should work with their academic advisor to determine if a Repeat Course Appeal should be submitted for consideration.
