jebdad - How do you know second semester courses are required documents for the admissions board? Not required for my college re-applicant DS. He was never asked and he received an appointment. Anyone advising this young man/woman that dropping a spring semester elective is a bad idea even though he would still carry 15 hours in his major which was obviously in a strong enough curriculum to receive an appointment is off base.

trigger - It was requested by DS's RC and they even made some recommendations on his upcoming schedule. I thought this was standard operating procedure. DS was a free agent reapplicant at an AOG sponsored school. Every candidate for any of the SAs at that school provided current and future classes. That is why I was asking the question if 5Day received this information from admissions. Not sure how you deem that as me advising someone to not drop a class. I was simply asking for clarification on how they knew that. Based on what admissions had asked of my DS, it did not seem prudent to drop a class without running it past the RC.
When it comes to admissions, I think its best to proceed with the greatest degree of caution and transparency. You very well may be right that dropping an elective is no big deal. I don't disagree with that. What I disagree with is doing so without touching base with admissions. If it truly is not big deal, admissions will tell you so. It is the conservative way to proceed.
