Do you have to pass both semesters of a class to keep from going to summer school?

Typically, whether you need to pass both semesters of a class to avoid summer school depends on your school's policies. Many schools require students to pass both semesters to earn full credit for the course. However, some institutions may allow for passing one semester while providing options for credit recovery in the other. It's best to check with your school’s academic guidelines for specific requirements.
