I am going to be a junior next year with a full load of both AP and IB classes. I still haven’t made the requirement for the one year of a visual/performing arts class. I would much rather take an extra AP class then have to fill it with some regular visual arts class that my school offers. Does anybody know of any online or summer class that meets the UC A-G requirement for visual/performing arts?
What about AP Art History?
Isn’t there an IB Course that fills that? IB Visual Arts?
Online classes are not an option unless you will take the AP Art History exam at the end of the year. ‘‘Online high school-level visual and performing arts (“f”) courses will not be approved because it is difficult for students taking online courses in this subject area to experience the required performance component of performance arts courses and/or replicate the expected portfolio component of visual arts courses.’’ (http://www.ucop.edu/agguide/online-learning/online-courses/index.html) If you recieve a ‘‘score of 3, 4 or 5 on the AP History of Art, Studio Art or Music Theory Exam’’ (http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/freshman/minimum-requirements/subject-requirement/index.html#art), it will complete the one year requirement.
