3. You believe the requisite or limitation is discriminatory or being applied in a discriminatory manner.

4. You have the documented knowledge or ability to succeed in the course. File your Requisite Challenge form with matriculation office, room 808. If space is available in the class at the time you file your challenge, you may register for the challenge class and the District will resolve your challenge within five academic calendar work days, you may remain in the class. If your challenge is denied, you will be dropped from the challenge class. If no space is available in the challenge prior to the beginning of registration for the next term.
