We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Does retaking a class replace the grade USF?

What is grade forgiveness? Permits an undergraduate to repeat a course and have the repeated grade computed in his/her GPA in place of the original grade, providing the repeat grade is D or higher (exception - see Honors at Graduation).

Is grade forgiveness worth it?

If a grade forgiveness request is approved, the original course still will appear on the students official transcript, but will not earn credit or count towards the students term or cumulative GPA.

Does grade forgiveness fix your GPA?

Grade forgiveness can only be requested after the student has repeated the course and earned a higher grade. The original grade remains on the transcript, but grade point averages are calculated without the forgiven grade. Grade forgiveness does not automatically alter prior academic decisions.

Can I raise my GPA from 2.7 to 3.0 in 1 semester?

This result holds true for first-time course-takers as well as for students who do not repeat any courses while in college. Finally, while helping students achieve ultimate mastery, we find no evidence that grade forgiveness delays graduation or elicits spending less effort by students.

Does grade forgiveness help GPA?

No. Grade forgiveness completely wipes out the first grade from your GPA. However, it still shows your original grade on your transcript so when you apply to jobs they can see you retook it.
