    Can fourth year students or new graduates retake previously attended ACSC classes to gain CIA exemption?

      This will depend on the courses you are thinking about. In general, you can retake courses. However, I know that in the past students have not been able to retake a class that they already have used as a prerequisite. So you couldn't retake 217 after passing 317.
