UC/CSU Minimum Admission Eligibility Requirements
To meet the minimum admission eligibility requirements, you must complete 15 yearlong "a-g" high school courses with a letter grade of C or better — at least 11 of them prior to your last year of high school.
"a-g" courses are 15 year-long college preparatory courses established by the University of California. Click here for a list of approved a-g courses in our Alternative Education program.
You also may meet the requirements by completing college courses as a dual-enrolled high school student.
