Courses that may be taken more than once for credit are so designated in the course descriptions, with any limits specified. If a student exceeds the maximum attempts indicated, the grade of the first attempt in which the student earned a grade of A, B, C, D, E, P, X, I, or WE   will be removed from from the record. Any limits on the number of attempts that apply toward graduation will also be enforced.

An Undergraduate student wishing to improve upon a previously received grade may repeat a course. If the catalog course description for a class indicates that it may be taken multiple times for credit, departmental approval may be required to have the first attempt removed from GPA calculations. Otherwise, the grade in the first attempt in which the student earned a grade of A, B, C, D, E, P, X, I, or WE will be removed from the record by the next attempt in which a student earns a grade of A, B, C, D, E, P, X, I, or WE. Grades and all hours beginning with the second attempt will be used in grade point computations. However, hours for only one repeated attempt will be allowed to count toward the minimum number of hours required for graduation. It is the responsibility of the student to notify the Registrar's Office of any repeated courses. This can be done through RACER-TOUCH scheduling or drop/add, or in person in the office on the first floor of Spark's Hall.

• The recalculation of GPA's due to repeated courses is not automated. Student's who have indicated repeated courses when scheduling will be notified of any changes to their GPA's within six weeks of the end of that semester.
  
  

Courses taken at Murray State may not be repeated at another institution, by correspondence, by departmental challenge, or other tests for credit, with the intention of replacing the earlier grade.

• The GPA at graduation is permanent and will not be recalculated if additional courses are taken after graduation.
