<p>You will not earn hours toward your 120 needed credit hours for graduation by retaking classes. So if you are enrolled in 15 hours but are repeating 2 classes, you will only receive 9 hours toward the credits needed for graduation. Since you already have that amount, this doesn’t matter to you.</p>
<p>However, ALL the courses you take, regardless of repeating or not, are added to your GPA. So if you got a D the first time and an A the second time, you will get 3 quality points for the first time and 12 for the repeated time. If you get grades the second time around that are higher than your overall GPA, your GPA will be boosted. But if your GPA is a 3.2 and you get a B in the classes you retake, yes it will decrease your overall GPA.</p>
<p>“The grades of both courses, however, will be computed in the student’s cumulative grade point average”</p>
<p>Does that make sense?</p>
