Statement on Repeating Courses

All students majoring in Chemistry must earn a minimum grade of C in the core Chemistry courses (General Chemistry lecture and lab I & II, Organic Chemistry I & II, Organic Chemistry Lab I & II, and Analytical Chemistry) and all supporting courses (Calculus and Analytical Geometry I & II and Physics lecture and lab I & II). Courses required for a Chemistry major can only be repeated once. If the minimum grade is not attained by the second attempt, the student will be disqualified from the Chemistry major.
