Most colleges will let you change from one registered class to another as long as there is room in that class and as long as you meet the deadline. At most colleges, the earlier you request the change, the better. At my son’s college, all course changes are done online, while at my daughter’s college, you need to call to make a change.

Just look carefully at any prerequisites for those required classes.

At my son’s college, you can be placed on the wait list for certain classes. Many students get into the classes through the wait lists because many other students change their mind about classes.

Some of those courses for which are currently registered may still count towards general education requirements that you typically need for a degree (such as one writing class, one math class, etc.)
