I took an Entry-level course more than once / at another institution / by exam. How is this calculated?

Grades for Entry-Level courses not taken at The University of Texas at Austin will be used in the calculation of the Entry-Level Sequence GPA. The Entry-Level CS GPA is computed over all Entry-Level courses taken. If you make below a C- on an Entry-Level course, you are permitted one additional attempt at the course. In this case, the highest grade achieved in the course will be used to calculate the Entry-Level GPA. Please keep in mind that dropped attempts are included in the "2 attempt" requirement. This includes a "withdrawl" which shows on a transcript as a "W." Also, once a student is enrolled at UT Austin, they may not take entry level C S courses and have them count toward their requirements. At this point, all C S entry-level courses must be taken in residence at UT Austin.
