Frequently asked questions

How can I request a grade replacement or grade forgiveness?

A student may repeat a course they have previously taken at TJC for the purposes of improving their original grade. Only the semester credit hours and quality points from the highest grade will be used in calculating the grade-point average. The repeated course with the lower grade is marked as excluded on the student’s official record in earned hours. All course attempts are recorded on the student’s permanent record/transcript. Receipt of a higher grade in a subsequent semester does not alter the student’s academic standing in the semester when the original grades were earned. Major topic courses which are required to repeat for certain majors are exempt from this policy.
