<p>I am an international student (currently studying the British A-Levels in England) and due the the difference in our system, I have not taken any visual/performing arts course at school from grade 9 onwards. </p>
<p>The problem is-UC requires at least one course in visual/performing arts. As I take private dance lessons 4 times per week. Can I put this down as a 'course'?</p>
<p>Help much appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>Your private lessons are probably not a graded class... so that may be a problem. And they will not show up on the official school records you will have to send in when accepted.
You should contact the admissions office asap or talk to an advisor at your high school about this right away since the deadline is so close.</p>
<p>if i read correctly, there are several "pathways" for eligibility</p>

<p>I found it on the Berkeley Admissions website. Hopefully it answers your questions. Good luck!</p>
