High School Planning
Welcome to High School!
You don't have to have it all figured out just yet! It takes time. But if you think you might want to go to 4-year college straight out of high school, you will need to follow this plan to even qualify! All UC's and CSU's (that's college talk for universities and state colleges) have basic requirements (and some recommendations) for entrance including...
Transcripts are the #1 thing colleges look at when you apply! Good grades are vital!
English 40 Credits
Math 3 Years required, 4 years recommended!
History 35 Credits required
Science 2 Years required, 3 years recommended! (Biology, Chemistry, Physics)
Art 1 year required
Foreign Language 2 years of the same language required, 3 years recommended!
4-year colleges do not accept D's as passing.
(If you get a D in a CP course, you will definitely want to retake it!)
