2016-2017 Undergraduate General Catalog


Academic Renewal

A student who has not been enrolled at Augustana for four consecutive years may petition to have the previous grade point average earned prior to the four year period not be included in the student’s cumulative grade point average. The courses will appear on the transcript, but will not be used in computing the grade point average. Any credit hours earned will count toward the graduation requirement. The statement, “Academic Renewal Declared on (date)”, will appear on the transcript. Once academic renewal has been declared, it is final and irreversible. Academic renewal may be used only once in a student’s academic career. The petition for exception to a published academic regulation shall be the form used to make this request, and can be obtained from the Registrar’s Office.
