Accepted, but are requirements fulfilled?

I was recently accepted at PCOM and have already sent in my deposit to go there. However, I was wondering if all my requirements are ok(or if I need to take certain classes in spring to fulfill those certain requirements if not since I graduate then).

The issue I am afraid of is with Orgo. I took organic chemistry I and II and also organic chemistry I lab. This all adds up to 9 credits(Organic Chem 1= 4, Lab 1=2, Org. 2=3). The requirements for pcom states their requirements is 8 credits. I assumed also since I got accepted that my requirements were fulfilled. Am I correct in this assumption?

I really don't want to take org. 2 lab if I don't necesarrily have to. I have it scheduled anyways for spring right now just in case. But I am hoping to drop it before the semester starts if I don't need it.
I tried contacting admissions today but I guess i'm cutting it too close to christmas.

Thanks in advance for the advice!

You already know the answer. Wait for PCOM to answer you.

They probably will tell you that you need the lab.

All schools (with the exception of a few schools that allow substitutions) require lab components with each science sequence. All you have to do is check their website or call to see what they require for matriculation. No need to see around pondering what is required.

At the risk of exposing myself, I will say that this is not necessarily 100% enforced. I have taken zero biology labs, and my school cleared my bio requirement. I even called to confirm, and they said, if we cleared it, don't push the issue.

I do have a lot of chemistry labs, and have also taken a "chem bio" lab (basically biochem, but heavier influence on chem).
