Online Force Request
Force requests for other departments' courses are handled by those departments.
The department attempts to honor all requests in priority order based upon the information provided, actual need, and the order in which we receive the requests. The department is the sole judge of the validity and priority of your request. The department processes requests during open registration. The department will not consider requests submitted prior to a student’s pre-registration period.
You are not guaranteed enrollment in any course. Create your own backup plan. Monitor the classes in Howdy for openings as other students change their schedules. You are responsible for checking your schedule to see if it changes and if the changes are according to your request.
Oftentimes the department will ask a student to leave a class if doing so will free up a spot for another student with much greater priority. These decisions are difficult for all. As you provide the reasons for your request, remember that you are an Aggie. Dishonest use of the force request may be considered a violation of the Aggie Code of Honor.
