First-year students may declare academic bankruptcy and repeat their fall or spring semester, or the entire first year. The grades from the bankrupted semester or year will not be included in the cumulative grade point average (though a record of the semester's or year's courses taken will remain on their transcript).
Application for Academic Bankruptcy must be made within 10 days of the end of the semester or year for which bankruptcy is sought. All repeated courses must be taken at Villanova.
Interested students must complete the Repeat First-Year Request Form. The form can be found on the Current Engineering Undergraduate Students Intranet site.
