What is academic renewal?

Academic renewal is a process by which college or university students can improve their academic records by eliminating poor grades or credits from their transcript. This process is usually available to students who have had a difficult time in the past due to personal or academic reasons, and who have demonstrated significant improvement in their academic performance. Academic renewal policies vary between institutions, but typically involve a review of a student's academic history, determination of eligibility, and the removal of specific grades or credits from the transcript. It is important to note that academic renewal does not erase the history of a student's grades, but can help students to improve their overall academic record.
