A-G classes question

<p>Hey everyone. I just got my transcript today, and after checking the classes vs. the a-g online course class list, it seems I don't have an art class. I took a class called "digital photo" my sophomore year and, although it does show up on my transcript as fulfilling my art requirement, I can't find it on the online list at <a href="https://doorways.ucop.edu/list/site%5B/url%5D"&gt;https://doorways.ucop.edu/list/site&lt;/a> .</p>

<p>Does this mean I have to somehow take an art class my senior year (now)? Is there anyone I can talk to about this, besides my school (who is very incompetent)?</p>

<p>Thank you very much.</p>

<p>I'd like to add that this list is very outdated (although it says it's 2007-2008). It lists us having a Physics B AP class but that's not offered, as well as many other classes that aren't offered or new classes that are offered.</p>

<p>I'd call the people at the UC application processing center. Just call any number you can find on that site and ask to be transferred.</p>

<p>Nononono! Talk to your school admin about that -- unless the class you took is on their list, a lot of the UCs will ding you on the VPA requirement! It HAS to be approved by the UC so it'll be on the A-G list, and they have some stiff requirements. Only if the school ASSURES you it's been approved (and get something in writing) if you still feel concerned, then go to UC and see what they say.</p>

<p>If worse comes to worse you can take a cc class for spring semester to fulfill the requirement (one semester cc = 1 year VPA).</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>If I took Art 101 at a CC (for college credit) would that cover it? Or not?</p>

<p>check w/the cc website and it will say if it's uc transferable vs. cal state transferable. It HAS to be UC transferable for it to be accepted. Someone else on this board was talking about a website that spells it out per cc, but I forgot what it was. I know at Santa Monica College, the courses stated if it was UC or Cal State or both.</p>

<p>Oh, I know that the class is UC transferable. But do I need to make it count for HS credit or college credit?</p>

<p>Depends on how your high school does it. My son's school puts some cc classes on the transcript, but not others. I would ask your high school registrar for a list of cc classes that they are willing to include on the high school transcript. If the art class you want to take isn't on there, I think the UC's will accept it as a straight cc transfer to fulfill the requirement. Good luck.</p>

<p>if the class is transferable, it will be marked 'igetci' at the college (if Cal State or juco). If transferable, you do not need to add it to your transcript, unless your HS so requires. You just list Art 101 on your UC app, including the college name, and it will count in fulfillment of the VAPA ("f") requirement.</p>

<p>Thank you very much for the replies. </p>

<p>So, someone can please clarify one thing it would be extremely helpful: Will the Art class I took give me both 3 transferable college credits as well as fulfill the 1 year of visual/preforming arts requirement? Or can I only choose 1?</p>

<p>Thank you very much!</p>

<p>if the Art class is igetci transferable, yes (transferable credit) and yes (fulfills VAPA requirement).</p>

<p>OK thank you very much for everyone that posted here! I checked the CC website and it is both UC tranferable and also counts for the Igetc!</p>

<p>Thank you very much to everyone who posted, hopefully this will help anyone else who had the same problem with me!</p>
