Course forgiveness is implemented when a student repeats a course and the higher/highest grade awarded (excluding the grades of W and WP) replaces all previous grades for that course in the computation of the cumulative grade point average. The official transcript will list the course and grade each time it is attempted.
When a student completes a course more than once, the highest grade will be counted in the GPA and all other grades excluded from the GPA. Official transcripts will list each course in which a student was enrolled.
A student may repeat a course more than once, but the course may be counted only once toward fulfillment of credit hours for graduation.
At the time that grades are placed on the official transcript - after the conclusion of all final exams - the course forgiveness/repeat rules will automatically be applied, and each transcript will reflect the Alabama Community College System’s policy pertaining to computation of repeated courses.
NOTE: STUDENTS SHOULD CHECK FINANCIAL AID REGULATIONS REGARDING REPETITION OF COURSES.
