COLLEGE PREPARATORY COURSES (A-G REQUIREMENTS)
Each high school's college preparatory courses in California must be approved through the University of California Office of the President (UCOP) in order for a student taking the course to be eligible for admission to the University of California (UC) or California State University (CSU) system. Each year the course list is updated based on the courses being offered at a particular high school. Students appear to advantage when applying to UC or CSU when they take advantage of the most rigorous courses available at the school, as indicated on the A-G course list.
In order to complete the A-G course sequence, students must earn grades of “C” or better on a variety of courses. Visit the A-G Guide for a detailed list of A-G requirements. While it is highly recommended that all students complete the A-G course sequence, all students must also complete all high school graduation requirements in order to graduate with a diploma.
