I have failed a class twice. Am I allowed to take it a third time at PCC?

At PCC, the Academic Regulations state you may re-take a course in which you earn a letter grade of D or lower, Audit, or No Pass (NP), as many?times as it takes to pass the class. Your transcript will reflect each attempt,?and your most recent grade will be the one used to calculate your GPA.
There are two things you should be aware of. The first is that if you are planning to transfer, the institution you transfer to may take the best grade, the most recent grade, or an average of all attempts. This is completely up to the transferring institution. The second is that some programs of study may limit the number of times you are allowed to re-take a course and continue to be eligible for that program.
If you have questions speak with an Academic Advisor. Additionally, there are limitations to financial aid covering repeat courses, so make sure to speak with Financial Aid before repeating a class.
