Course Repeats

The same course taken past the census date more than once is a course repeat. The official day of record for an undergraduate regular term course is the 12th class day (census date).  

All courses that receive a grade will be reported on the student's transcript.

Course Repeat Policy

  • Prior to fall 1996 - both grades are included in the GPA.
  • Between fall 1996 and summer 2003 - only the latest grade is included in the GPA.
  • Effective fall 2003 - the highest grade earned is included in the GPA.

Texas legislation now disallows funding on the third or subsequent enrollment in any course other than a non-degree-credit developmental course containing the same content. State regulations allow an institution of higher education to charge a higher tuition rate to a student whose hours can no longer be submitted for state funding.

TCC does not charge a higher tuition rate for course repeats at this time.
