Undergraduate Students

If you repeat a course for course forgiveness in which you received a grade of D- or better, the units for the course will be counted only once toward graduation. While your new grade for the repeated course may help with your grade point average and/or academic requirements, it may also increase your financial aid unit deficiency and affect your continuing financial aid eligibility.

If you must repeat a course, you should consult with a financial aid counselor to determine if your aid eligibility will be affected. Also review the Course Forgiveness and Course Repeat Policy in the SDSU General Catalog.

Graduate Students

Review the Course Repeat Policy in the SDSU Graduate Bulletin and consult with your graduate advisor.  Generally, a graduate student may not repeat a course.  With prior permission, if you do repeat a course, both grades remain on your permanent record and both grades affect your grade point average.
