Request for Grade Forgiveness
Policy: A student who has not been enrolled in curriculum courses in the College for 60 consecutive months (5 years) may submit a Request for Grade Forgiveness to Registration and Student Records Services for review. Under this policy, the student may request that his/her previous grades of “WF” or “F” not be used in calculating the cumulative grade point average. However, the grades will remain on the transcript, but they are not included in the GPA. This may not have any bearing on how another institution calculates your GPA.
Instructions: Please print information in the spaces provided. If you meet the eligibility requirements stated in the policy, your request for grade forgiveness will be considered and an updated transcript will be mailed to your address on file. If you do not meet the eligibility requirements, you will be mailed a letter stating the reason for the denial of your request.

Grade Forgiveness Policy
A student who has not been enrolled in curriculum courses in the College for 60 consecutive months (five years) or longer may submit a Request for Grade Forgiveness to the Registration and Student Records Services Division. Under this policy, the student may request that previous grades of "WF" or "F" not be used in calculating the cumulative grade point average. A grade of FG will replace the original grade on the transcript: however, the FG grade is not included in the GPA. This ruling has no bearing on any other institutions or how they calculate GPA.
Before submitting a Request for Grade Forgiveness, the student must be re-admitted to the college, have completed at least 12 credit hours of course work at the 100 level or above, with a minimum quality point average of 2.0, and be registered for courses at the time the request is submitted. Requests for Grade Forgiveness are processed weekly, and the student will be notified in writing at the mailing address on file. A student may request grade forgiveness only once while at Wake Tech.
