Recalculation of Point Average:
A current undergraduate student may wish to improve his or her cumulative point average by repeating a course in which a grade of "D" or "F" was earned. In order to recalculate the cumulative point average, the repetition must be consistent with the policy on repetition of courses and the student must initiate the recalculation process with the approval of his or her advisor (or the dean, if it is a second repetition). Although courses are not deleted from the permanent record, the record is adjusted to reflect the inclusion of only the last grade in the computation of the point average. The hours credited toward degree hours completed are those earned with the last grade.
Only undergraduate students currently attending the University may request this recalculation priviledge, and only courses taken at YSU may be used in recalculating the cumulative point average. A post-baccalaureate student is not eligible to petition for recalculation unless both the course and the repetition are completed subsequent to the conferring of the degree. A student holding the associate degree may petition after receiving the associate degree only if currently pursuing a baccalaureate degree. (All YSU grades, inlcuding those deducted from the accumulative totals as a result of an approved Repetition Form, will be counted in determining honors for graduation.)
