Uganda Martyrs University RETAKE A student who scores less than 50% in a coursework, or a student who scores less than 30% in a final assessment, or a student who fails a supplementary, will be required to retake that subject when next offered in the following academic year. A student with only ONE failed course in a semester may be permitted to proceed to the next year of study, but will be required to retake the failed course in the immediate semester when such a course is offered (this may attract a payment if the timetable does not permit such a student to attend lectures for the retake). If a student has two or more failed courses in a semester, such a student will not be permitted to proceed to the next year of study until s/he passes the failed courses. The abbreviation (RET) will be put beside such a subject on the transcript to signify the fact that the subject was passed after a retake. A student who absconds from doing final assessment will automatically be required to repeat the course unit whose examination s/he absconded from.
