How does elective credit work?

<p>Most of the credit I get from AP's only count for elective credit. </p>

<p>You need 45 credits for sophomore standing at UCI. Assuming I had just over 45 credits (mostly in elective credit), would I be able to get sophomore standing?</p>

<p>Yes. You’ll be able to sign up for classes early while other students fight for the best spots.</p>
