Exceptions to the grade of C or higher rule include EDUC-M 135, M 323, and Q 200. These courses require only a passing grade.

Extended-X (Amended FX Policy)

Program change: Any undergraduate student may retake a course for which he or she received a grade below an A during the first 45 credit hours of course work. A student may exercise this option for no more than three courses, totaling no more than 10 credits. A student may use this option only once for a given course.

The student's transcript shall record both grades. For the course retaken, only the second grade shall be counted in the determination of the student's grade point average (GPA). Any GPA calculated in accord with this policy shall be marked with an asterisk denoting that a lower grade has been replaced by a second grade in the course.

Note: This policy was implemented fall semester 2001-2002. Courses taken before that term do not apply.

For more information regarding the Extended-X policy, see the Office of Registrar's Web site at www.registrar.indiana.edu.
