The first question is if anyone has any experience successfully getting out of a requirement. I don’t know the answer. I think you may have a better chance if you propose an alternative that is close to a requirement, so that you are asking for broadening of a requirement in your case, not a complete removal of it. For example, there may be a course that does not officially meet a non-Western cultures requirement but could meet some of the same objectives.

It is possible for top students to be accepted into the Echols program during their 1st year student, which could release you of some requirements.
