Can you graduate college with an F?
You can still finish college with one F on your transcript as long as you make up those lost credits, either by retaking the class or taking another class in its stead. As long as you have all the required credits to graduate, both in your major/program and in your electives, then you can graduate.

What is the difference between credit hours and contact hours?
Contact Hour: 50 minutes of scheduled instruction presented to students. Semester Credit Hour: the amount of credit awarded for successful completion of one contact hour of classroom instruction and two preparation hours per week for a semester of not less than 14 weeks.
What are contact hours in college?
A contact hour is a measure that represents an hour of scheduled instruction given to students. A semester credit hour is normally granted for satisfactory completion of one 50-minute session (contact hour) of classroom instruction per week for a semester of not less than fifteen weeks.
How are contact hours calculated?
The contact hours should be calculated on a per week basis. For example, one contact hour per week of lecture for 15 weeks equals one credit hour (e.g., a three semester credit hour course meets for 45 contact hours).
Does a dropped class appear on the transcript?
There will be no mark on your transcript, so colleges won’t ever see or know that you dropped the class. If you drop a class early on in the semester, try to add another class in its place so you still have a full schedule and can be sure of meeting the number of credits required for graduation.
