Repeat for Credit

In some cases, students may earn credit for repeating a course with the same course number. The department monitors the repeatability characteristic of the course to avoid abuse of this feature.

Inserting a phrase in the catalog course description stating that the course may be repeated for credit is at the discretion of the department. The department may also identify a specific limit of times the course may be taken for credit. This number will be entered into the "credits" field of the catalog. If no such limit is identified, "99" will be entered as the repeat value, allowing for an almost indefinite capacity for repeating the course for credit.
