Academic Renewal
If you have completed all requirements for graduation except the earning of a minimum grade point average, you may petition to have up to two semesters discounted from all considerations associated with meeting requirements for your baccalaureate or graduate degree. At least five years shall have elapsed since the term(s) to be disregarded were complete.
Undergraduate students who have completed all requirements for graduation except the earning of at least a "C" (2.0) grade point average and have met a strict set of conditions may qualify for academic renewal.
Graduate students who have completed all requirements for graduation except the earning of at least a "B" (3.0) grade point average and have met additional conditions may qualify for academic renewal.
