What is a Force Request?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Students who are unable to register for a course due to a system restriction or the section being full can submit a force request. Students who request to be forced into a course are added to a waiting list to enroll for that course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submitting a force request does not guarantee enrollment<\/strong> in the course. The best way to potentially enroll in a full course is to monitor the course in HOWDY for any openings as other students drop the course. Registration schedules can be found on the Registrar’s Website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The College of Architecture only provides force requests for courses in ARCH, ARTS, CARC, COSC, ENDS, LAND, and URPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Request Open Date:<\/strong> October 31 at 6 a.m.
Request Close Date:<\/strong> November 13 at 5 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Force Requests Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Requesting a Course<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Spring 2025 force request form opens on October 31 at 6 a.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students can submit a force request after they have completed their pre-registration. Force requests received prior to your pre-registration date will not be processed, except for ENDS\/ARCH studios.<\/strong> Environmental Design students can submit studio force requests as soon as the form opens. They will be processed in the order they were received after the form closes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Request Evaluations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Force requests will be evaluated after the form closes on November 13 at 5 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Requests will be reviewed the first week of open registration and re-visited the week before classes start. Be sure to check your bill and schedule for any changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Requests are evaluated based on the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Graduation date<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Requirement for degree<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Timeliness of request<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Force Requests will be denied when:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • you are already enrolled in a different section of the course at a different time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • there is a time conflict between the class you are requesting and another class in your schedule<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The following issues are NOT appropriate considerations to be forced into a class:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Section change.<\/strong> If you are enrolled in a section, you are holding a seat that could be available to another student. You must drop your current section if you wish to be considered for another.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Class time change.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Instructor preference.<\/strong> Studio sections cannot be forced over the limit. Once a section is full, you must register for another one with available seats<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"resource_audience":[29,30],"resource_category":[37],"resource_department":[107],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nForce Requests - Texas A&M University College of Architecture<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arch.tamu.edu\/resources\/force-requests\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Force Requests\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"What is a Force Request?
