The course is assigned for 1-12 credit hours during the quarter in which the student repeats the failed course. The assigned course will include content previously completed that is deemed critical for success in the Doctor of Optometry curriculum. This is a pass/fail course; letter grades are not assigned. The student who fails to successfully complete the assigned Optometry Competency course will be referred to the Student Promotion and Graduation Committee and may be dismissed from the college.
