Repeating Courses/Recalculation of GPA


Students can repeat a course according to the criteria specified below:

  1. Students must repeat any College-wide Core course in sequence if the final grade received in the lower-level course is below a “C.”

  2. Students do not have to repeat a course in which an Incomplete (INC) grade was awarded until that grade is changed to an “FIN”. Students have until the end of the subsequent semester to complete the requirements for a course in which an “INC” grade is awarded. The deadline dates for completion of course requirements are in the Academic Calendar. The Academic Calendar can be found online at www.mec.cuny.edu/registrar. Failure to complete course requirements will result in a “FIN” grade. It is only at this point that a student may repeat the course from a subsequent semester.
