What happens if I receive a D in a course used for the major?

The following quote is from the Barnard Catalouge and is College policy.

"Courses in which the student receives the grade of D may not be counted toward the major requirement or the minor option. Required courses graded D that must be retaken for a higher grade to satisfy requirements for the major or minor will not receive degree credit when repeated. Both enrollments and grades appear on the transcript."

This applies to all required courses for the major, including Calculus or the new Math Methods course if you need them for for your major.

If you receive a D in an elective course used for the major, you may retake the course (with no credit as stated above) or you may substitue another elecitve that meets the requirement for the major. --Make sure you update your Major Requirements Declaration form with your major adviser.
