What is course forgiveness?
Course forgiveness allows you to re-take a class and “forgive” the first grade. Course forgiveness can only be used on original grades of “C-” or lower. The courses must be the exact same course and must be repeated at SDSU. The original grade remains on your transcript, but does not get calculated into your grade point average. The second grade replaces (forgives) the original grade. Course forgiveness is not automatic; you must apply through the Office of the Registrar. See the course forgiveness section of this Web site for more information.
