What does enforced requisites mean?

<p>I signed up for a class a few days ago and I didn't realize that it said this:</p>

<p>Enforced Requisites or Co-Requisites: Psychology 10, 100a, and 127</p>

<p>The only psych class I've taken is intro to psych. I couldn't find on the site what enforced requisite means?</p>

<p>You won't be able to take this class, without those other ones. You will need to change classes or get instructor's consent.</p>

<p>It means that you have to take those courses before taking the class that you want.</p>

<p>CRAP!!!!! How come it let me register for it! :(</p>

<p>good question. At my son's college, if you sign up, there is a message preventing you from signing up without consent if you don't have the pre-reqs in the system. </p>

<p>Is there a chance that you can add a class or put one on your waitlist? different colleges handle this differently. Check. You might be able to sign up online to get into another class now, before the semester/quarter starts.</p>

<p>Yeah sometimes there's a bug in the system. No one will ever find out if you keep quiet about it because it's all through URSA that the checking is supposed to be done. But only take the class if you feel prepared. Like obviously you wouldn't want to take Multi-variable calculus if you've never done regular calculus.</p>

<p>I emailed my counselor about it because it says there are three forced requisites: psych 10, 100a, and 127. But she told me that only one that is required is psych 10 and the upper division ones are optional so now I'm confused.</p>

<p>so is psych 10 the intro class? If that is the case, than you may be fine.</p>

<p>yup! psych 10 is intro to psychology</p>

<p>if your counselor said those are suggested, but you have the pre-req, than don't worry about it. Maybe you got through the reg process because those are optional and not required courses. Kind of like "optional" books on reading lists!</p>

<p>I hope so!!! I'm waitlisted on my two other classes and all the other classes I could take instead are either closed or waitlisted as well!</p>

<p>are you a transfer? whats your major and what class are you trying to get into</p>

<p>I'm a transfer majoring in communications and the class is</p>

<p>COMM ST M116 COMUNCTN-CPLS&FMLYS</p>

<p>oh i'm taking that class too! only i'm taking it under psych.</p>

<p>i think maybe it also helps that you're taking it under comm. no idea why that matters.</p>

<p>stick with it... 100a will not help you (it's stats) and 127 might be beneficial (abnormal psych) but you can live without it.</p>

<p>im on the same situation i signed up for physics 6A but don't have the pre-reqs done... how strange! o well im still ganna take it</p>
