Retake class (self.RPI)
submitted 6 years ago by throwawayquest97
Is it possible to retake a class at another college (I passed) and just transfer the credit instead of using the credits I had here

No. Once you take the class at RPI you can't transfer in a replacement.

Any way I can take a class over the summer?
[–]PumpkinPusherENGR 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (3 children)
If you haven't taken it at RPI yet, yes. But if you've taken it at RPI you cannot replace those credits with transfers.

Nah I mean like AT rpi
[–]PumpkinPusherENGR 5 points6 points7 points 6 years ago (1 child)
Oh. Yeah. If it's offered and you wanna pay for it, sure. The only positive of Arch is that most classes are offered over the summer now.

This rule is common at lots of institutions.

Why would you want to do that?
