Out of State A-G courses for UC

<p>Hey everyone!</p>

<p>I'm completely confused for the A-G requirements. The high school I'm currently attending (and plan to transfer out of next year) is a online Private school. Anyways, I'm wondering if the courses I'm taking count towards the A-G requirements. Because from what I'm reading, any school that isn't a California school will not satisfy A-G requirements. Does this mean all the credits I'm earning for subjects such as Math and Science don't count? I'm an out of State resident. The online private school I'm attending is accredited by NWAC/AdvancED. Apparently it's a California Online Private School, but I searched using the website and noticed that they aren't A-G course approved (Which appears to also be every out-of-state high school) . Going back to the original question, Are the classes I'm taking not going to count towards satisfying the A-G requirement since I'm Out of State?</p>

<p>Thanks for the help!</p>

<p>No, it’s not true. Lots of kids come from outside of CA with the necessary requirements. What you need to do is talk to your counselor. Even a private online school should have someone to help in these matters.</p>

<p>A-G is pretty basic and not unlike the expectations of any other college. Example, UC’s require 3 years of math… if you’ve taken Geometry, Algebra II and Pre-calc then you’ve met the basic requirement. You need two years of lab science so if you took the standard biology and physics… you should be good. Of course, the UC’s vary in competitiveness so some will prefer you’d take MORE than the minimum but if you are at an accredited school and taking typical classes, you should be able to make this work.</p>

<p>This link should help you. It’s got a special section for online classes and a section for out-of-state. They say the requirements are the same for out-of-state except that the min GPA is 3.4 </p>

<p>Out-of-state high school courses can count toward a-g requirements, but you are not necessarily assured of whether they count like with California high school courses listed at <a href=“http://doorways.ucop.edu%5B/url%5D”>http://doorways.ucop.edu</a> . This is often most problematic with some types of visual and performing art courses, where out-of-state students may be trying to see if similar courses in California high schools count.</p>

<p>Wonderful. Thanks for the excellent help everyone!</p>
