Course Forgiveness

If students repeat a course, the last grade awarded (excluding a grade of W) replaces the previous grade in computing the cumulative grade point average. The grade point average during the term in which the course was first attempted will not be affected. When a course is repeated more than once, all grades for the course, excluding the first grade, are used to compute the cumulative grade point average. Official records at Wallace Community College will list each course in which students have enrolled. Course forgiveness will be implemented automatically after the course(s) have been repeated.

Implementation of course forgiveness at the College does not guarantee that other institutions will approve such action. This determination is made by the respective transfer institution.

NOTE: STUDENTS SHOULD CHECK FINANCIAL AID REGULATIONS REGARDING REPETITION OF COURSES.
