PETITION FOR ACADEMIC RENEWAL
Academic Renewal Policy
An Academic Renewal procedure permits alleviation of previously recorded sub-standard (“D,” “F,” and
“NP”) academic performance which is not reflective of a student’s present demonstrated ability and level
of performance. The permanent academic record shall be annotated in such a manner that all work
remains legible, ensuring a true and complete academic history.
1. A student may request that up to 30 units substandard coursework attempted be annotated and
disregarded in the computation of the student’s grade point average or requirements for a degree.
Only those requested courses with substandard grades will be disregarded.
2. At least twenty-four (24) units of college work from an accredited institution with a grade point
average of 2.0 must be completed after the 30 units of course work to be alleviated.
3. A student may be granted academic renewal only once.
4. No alleviated course work shall apply toward degree requirements.
5. Some senior-level institutions and possibly, certain out-of-state community colleges do not honor
academic renewal. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that his/her transfer institution will
approve of academic renewal from Cerritos College.
6. Submit the completed form to admissions-info@cerritos.edu
