Non-Petitionable Policies & Academic Requirements

All baccalaureate degrees require completion of a minimum of 120 credit hours.
A student must earn at least 25% of the degree requirements at Charlotte. This would be 30 hours for most 120-hour degree programs.
Students must earn an overall and major grade point average of 2.0 to graduate.
- If a program requires an overall GPA that is higher than a 2.0, a petition may be submitted to reduce the overall GPA requirement, but it may not be reduced below 2.0.
Undergraduate students may replace up to two courses (maximum of 8 credit hours) for grade replacement
A student whose cumulative GPA is below a 2.0 is placed on academic probation. This status is noted on the student’s permanent academic record and continues until the next evaluation opportunity. A student may not petition to have the standing removed from their record.
Students are assigned registration times according to student classification and cumulative hours earned. Students may not petition for an earlier registration time.
Students cannot use forgiveness or grade replacement AFTER their degree has been awarded.
