A student is permitted to repeat any course for which he or she has received a grade of "C" or below. In the event that the new grade obtained by retaking the course is superior to the previous grade, the new grade replaces the old grade in its entirety. That means that if a student retakes a course in which he or she got an "F", for sake of argument, and earns a "B" the second time around, the "B" replaces the "F", while the credit hours earned REMAIN THE SAME. This helps a student who has been struggling to rebuild their Grade Point Average by retaking courses in which they had previously done poorly and doing well in them the second time around. Should the student receive a grade in their second attempt which is INFERIOR to the grade received the first time they took the class, the grade WILL REMAIN THE SAME, and not assume the poorer grade earned the second time. The student, however, must pay the full tuition for the course each time it is taken if the course is being taken for credit. Free-Lance students and Audit students may repeat any course as many times as they desire provided that adequate seating is available for conventional students.

Failure in a course shall necessitate its repetition except by special permission of the professor of the course and the approval of the Ephesians 4 Center for Learning.
