<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Hi all,</p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">I want to clarify the University of Arizona’s undergraduate repeat policy as it relates to transfer coursework:</p>
<ul style="margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<li style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; margin: 0in;">
The repeat policy applies only to University of Arizona courses.</li><li style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
Transfer courses do not impact cumulative GPA or remove the grade from any U of A courses.</li></ul>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">For example, if a student fails a U of A course and later transfers in an equivalent course, the transfer course will count toward earned units and applicable degree requirements. However,
the original failed U of A attempt will remain in the U of A cumulative GPA. This approach aligns with the institutional

When undergraduate students repeat Regular Graded undergraduate courses, the student's GPA reflects only the highest grade earned in the repeated course. Credit is earned only for the completion that is included in the GPA.</p>

GPA.</p>
