Repeat and Cancel Policy

1. In the case of a repeated course, the lower grade is excluded from units attempted and from the cumulative GPA. The lower grade remains permanent in the student’s academic record but is annotated as being excluded from GPA calculations and from any credits that may have been earned.

2. Repeat and Cancel may be used only on courses taken and repeated at the University of Dallas.

3. Repeat and Cancel may be used for up to a total of fifteen (15) semester credits taken at the University of Dallas.

4. Repeat and Cancel may be used only on courses with grades below C-. If a student repeats a course for which he or she received a C- or higher, the repeated course is not calculated in the grade point average nor counted in hours for the degree. 

5. A student may repeat a course for credit only once using this policy. If a student repeats a course but receives a grade lower than C-, that grade is included in the GPA calculation even if the student takes the class a third time for the purpose of meeting degree requirements: with three or more attempts, the lowest grade may be canceled but all other attempts are included in the GPA. On the second attempt, if the student receives at least a D- in a lower division or non-major advanced course, or at least C- in an advanced course in the major field, all further attempts to repeat the course are not allowed and will not be calculated into the student's GPA nor counted in hours for the degree..

6. A student may not repeat a course for additional hours toward a degree unless the catalog description specifically states that the course may be repeated for credit.
