Summary of Changes for 2020/21 Calendar
University of Calgary Calendar 2020-2021 Academic Regulations B. Registration B.5 Repeating Courses
B.5 Repeating Courses

A student may repeat a course previously attempted (excluding withdrawals) only once. Repeating a course more than once requires the permission of the student’s home faculty and the department offering the course. Permission is granted only under exceptional circumstances.

The previously attempted and repeated course(s) will be recorded on the student’s record. The transcript will indicate each attempt and the grade received in the term in which each course was taken.

Taking or repeating a course that is a prerequisite for a higher-level course after having completed the higher-level course with a grade of "C-" or better will be allowed only with the permission of both the faculty in which the student is registered and the department offering the course.
