Not taking "planned in" class during spring?

Hello all,
So during the academic update period, I added a class that is pre-req by one of the schools that I applied to. However, I got accepted into my two top choice schools and both of them do not require that class. I don't wanna sound lazy but I am planning on working full time and save some money. Will it look bad if I don't take that class even though it appears as "planned" in my application?
Thanks 🙂

I've heard that some schools require you to take all of the classes you write down as planned. Best you can do is call the school and double check with them that it's okay to drop it.

Each school is different, so it is best to call them directly. I had this issue come up due to scheduling conflicts between a class I needed to graduate for my major and an extra class that I listed on my application. My school was understanding and said that as long as I complete my major and all pre-reqs prior to matriculation, then I will be good to go.

Thank for your responses.. I will call the school on Monday and ask them
