Academic courses offered at Vanguard University are not repeatable unless specifically noted in the catalog.  Those students who wish to retake a course due to a low or failing grade are permitted to register again for the same course during any given semester. All grades will appear on the student’s permanent academic record (transcript).  When a course is repeated, all grades will remain on the transcript, but only the higher grade is computed in the grade point average.  In the case that the grades are the same, only the most recent grade will be included in the grade point average (G.P.A.).
