    A student who does not earn a C or higher in BIO 101  and/or BIO 102  may retake the course(s) to remain a degree candidate in the major.  A student who does not earn a C or higher in the second attempt of either or both of the courses must meet with the Department Chair and the Advising Center to help the student choose a major that will lead to successful degree completion. If the student requires further assistance, the chair will refer the student to the Dean.
