Brief SUMMARY

Grade replacement refers to the process of repeating a course for credit.  This ways that the student takes the form for a 2d fourth dimension.  Grade replacement may be a way that students try to raise their GPA if they accept experienced i/some low grades in high school.  It is upwardly to the local school corporation if they allow course replacement and if so, how the course is reflected on the student transcript and how GPA is subsequently calculated.

KEY POINTS

• Whether or non grade replacement is allowed and how it is listed on a student'due south transcript is a local determination/is up to the school corporation.
• Before retaking a class, students should know how this will affect their transcript and GPA.
• The IDOE provides some guidance on course replacement.  (See "Shared Wisdom" and "Resources" sections below.)
• Students usually retake classes during summertime school or in the following school yr.
• On-line courses may exist available for course replacement.

SHARED WISDOM

• Q: What is your district policy on retaking courses either due to a failure or to supersede a D grade in gild to either get an honors diploma or try to become the GPA up (in order to get the 21st Century Scholarship)? Do y'all delete the low course altogether? Keep the low form merely don't summate it into the GPA? Or keep the grade and the GPA calculation while calculation the new grade/GPA calculation?
  • A: We let students replace any course at any fourth dimension. The lower class gets changed to NC for "no credit" and comes off the transcript, and the higher grade stays and is factored in.
  • A: The old course stays on the transcript but it is not factored into the GPA.
  • A: Continue the old class on the transcript but it gets removed from GPA Calc, form rank etc
  • A: Nosotros allow a student to retake a grade once and it has to be the same class (ex. Honors Biology would have to retaking Honors Biology, non regular Biological science).  We keep the quondam grade on the transcript but we audit it and have the credit away and exclude it from the GPA.  Nosotros then count the new grade toward the credits and GPA.
  • A: Here is a link to our policy at Edgewood HS: https://bulldoze.google.com/file/d/0BxiLSz8Vc0rgWnRSUHFJVC13VDA/view
  • A: I leave both grades on the transcript.  We drop the lower course for GPA; nonetheless, they highest GPA calculation they can receive for the retake is a two.0/4.0.  Therefore, whatsoever course over a C is placed on the transcripts equally the bodily form, but figured into the GPA as a C.
  • A: We continue the old grade physically on the transcript, add an (R) next to the original grade, accept abroad the credit.  It comes out of the GPA calculation.  The new course shows the credit earned and factors into the GPA.
  • A: We are pretty lenient. Students can retake any course that earned a B- or lower. The new grade replaces the onetime form and the new class factors into the GPA. For the most function students merely retake failures or to earn AHD. For how lenient our policy is, nosotros very rarely have retakes for class rank reasons or simply to boost the GPA, specially once we show them how little their GPA or rank will alter when they already had a C or even a B-.
  • A: Our corporation allows the re-take, only we proceed the original grade on the transcript and in the GPA calculation in an attempt for the transcript to be a true reflection of a student's academic history.
  • A: We let simply two grade audits for grades below a C.The original class stays on the transcript and is figured in the GPA. Plus, a educatee is non immune to be acme 20, if they have a course audit.  Nosotros leave the old form on the transcript, but assign information technology 0 credit.  That was it isn't counting in the GPA.  I retrieve our original theory was that leaving the onetime grade on the transcript left some issue for not taking the class seriously.  I would dear to see what results y'all go dorsum.
  • A: At Marion Loftier School students can retake any Core forty classes that we have online courses for and information technology is a retake and replaces the GPA value of the form, because it is considered the aforementioned as taking the normal course. The depression form loses its value and is replaced past the college class simply not deleted from the transcript.   If it is a DC, or AP we take no online class for these therefore cannot replace information technology but it could meet the graduation requirements in taking the online class.The low form keeps value and the new online class meets the graduation requirement for the AHD or THD. Unless they sit and retake the form in a live taught course once again to replace the class.  So the DC and AP classes stay on the GPA unless retaken in live class.
    • Retake the same verbal course in a PHS classroom setting during the post-obit school twelvemonth
    • Both grades volition remain on the transcript just credit and GPA calculation will be awarded to the most recent grade
    • If the course is non retaken the post-obit yr, both grades will remain on the transcript and will be factored into the GPA
    • Students retaking to meet pre-requisite grade standards for an upper level course will be evaluated on an private basis.  Both grades will remain on the transcript and be factored into the GPA (???)A: Retaking Courses: Students pursuing and Bookish or Technical Honors diploma will exist given the opportunity to retake (audit) a course if they receive a semester course lower than a C.  The student must:
  • A: Nosotros let students to retake classes and then remove the lower from the historical grades/ gpa.  if they are willing to put in the time and probable take classes with underclassmen- then more power to them! We keep the course and the one-time grade on the transcript, but nil out the endeavor (and the credit in the case of a D) so it will not calculate in the GPA.
  • A: My prior employment includes 25 years working for Indiana University on several campuses primarily in the areas of Admissions, Financial Aid & Scholarships and Bookish Advising. Based on my higher education feel, I am a proponent that the original attempt with the class should be reflected on the transcript. IU limits the number of courses that may be retaken.
• Q: How should it be recorded if a pupil fails a class but then retakes it and passes? A: This is a local schoolhouse corporation or school governing body decision.(See Requirements and Guidance for Indiana High Schoolhouse Transcripts, beneath)
• Q: How would the GPA be figured if a student fails a course but and then retakes it and passes?A: This is a local decision. If the course is noted on the transcript, it should be factored into the GPA. (See Requirements and Guidance for Indiana High Schoolhouse Transcripts, below)

  Course Retake/Course Replacement

  A grade retake/replacement occurs when a student retakes a class that he/she has already taken to hopefully receive a amend grade.

  1. The student received a form of F in the course.

  2. The student received a course of C- or below and wishes to run across the grade requirements for an Academic Honors Diploma.

  3. The student has non passed at to the lowest degree ane of the end of course exams required for graduation and seeks to get eligible for waiver consideration.

  A grade may be retaken just if one or more of the following conditions exist:

  A student seeking to retake a class volition make an application with the guidance department. The student shall country the reason for the requested retake on the awarding. The guidance department will review the application. The principal shall have the say-so to grant final approving for a student to retake a class.

  The following conditions apply to retaking a class:

  1. No online classes will exist accepted in replacement of loftier school courses used for an Academic Honors Diploma without administrative approval.

  2. The grade earned (either higher or lower) when the form is retaken will be placed on the transcript and replace the original grade in the adding of the GPA.

  3. The course that is earned in the retake course volition be used in the calculation of the GPA, but the new GPA shall render the pupil ineligible for such awards as valedictorian, salutatorian, or height ten award.

  The original grade will remain on the transcript with the credit for that class being transferred to the second class. A educatee may take advantage of this option up to two times in his/her loftier schoolhouse career.
