GRADE FORGIVENESS POLICY FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS

Policy Statement

Undergraduate students may petition for forgiveness of grades received in up to 16 credit hours of coursework, provided certain criteria are met. This policy applies to courses taken at Stony Brook as well as courses taken at other institutions and transferred to Stony Brook.

Grade Forgiveness is a policy whereby a student may petition to have the grades of up to 16 credit hours of coursework excluded from computation of the grade point average (GPA). A student may exercise this option no more than two times during his or her undergraduate career at Stony Brook.

Grade Forgiveness does not remove the original grades and courses from the student’s academic record; it is only for the purpose of recalculating the GPA. The original letter grades and courses will continue to appear on the transcript with a notation that “Grade Forgiven” has been applied. If a course is repeated, both the original grade and the repeated grade will appear on the transcript, with a notation that “Grade Forgiven” has been applied to the original grade.

Courses taken on a Pass/No Credit basis may not be forgiven. In addition, courses taken at other institutions and transferred to Stony Brook may not be forgiven.

To be eligible for Grade Forgiveness, a student must:

Have completed at least 12 credit hours at Stony Brook since being admitted as a degree candidate; and

Have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher; and Obtain the approval of an academic advisor and the department chairperson of the department in which the course(s) was taken.

Returning Students

Students who have been away from the University for one or more semesters (not including summer sessions) and who wish to return must submit a Petition for Reinstatement to the Registrar’s Office. The petition must be approved by the student’s academic advisor and the department chairperson before the student will be allowed to register.

Temporary Absence

Students who wish to take a leave of absence from the University for one or more semesters (not including summer sessions) must submit a Leave of Absence form to the Registrar’s Office. The leave of absence is granted for a specific period of time and is not automatically renewed. A student who wishes to extend a leave of absence must submit a new Leave of Absence form.

A student on a leave of absence is not considered to be enrolled at the University and is not eligible for any of the privileges or benefits of enrollment (e.g., use of facilities, access to services, etc.). In addition, a student on a leave of absence is not eligible to register for courses, either at Stony Brook or another institution.
