In summary, UCF Grade Forgiveness is a policy that allows undergraduate students at the University of Central Florida to retake a course in which they received a poor grade and replace it with the new grade earned upon retaking the course. This policy can be used up to three times during a student's undergraduate career and only applies to courses taken at UCF with a grade of D+ or lower. Utilizing UCF Grade Forgiveness will remove the original grade from the GPA calculation and only factor in the new grade earned upon retaking the course.

Hi all,

I've have just earned a AA degree from a Florida Public Institution, and I was wondering how the grade forgiveness works at UCF. I was at USM beforehand, and failed a class, then I came back home and failed a few more before I got serious. Now I have a 3.0 in grade forgiveness. I know UCF honors grade forgiveness, but would they honor all of it? Because without it i'd have a 2.06

I'd say this is something that the UCF themselves would be best able to answer. Have you contacted them yet?
