College Prep Pathway (A-G)
What Do College Admissions Evaluate in an Application?
Strength of Academic Curriculum (how rigorous are the courses available to you)
SAT/ACT/AP Test Scores (if submitted and/or required)
Extracurricular Activities (sports, school clubs, church groups, community service, community organizations, work/jobs, leadership)
Essay(s)
Letters of Recommendation (LOR)
Depth over Breadth!
What is A-G?
The A-G requirements are a sequence of high school courses that students must complete (with a grade of C or better) to be minimally eligible for admission to the University of California (UC) and
California State University (CSU).
The A-G letters represent academic subjects and are used by many colleges and universities across the nation. Students should research each college to determine if there are additional requirements.
These requirements should not be confused
with the courses required by
Oak Park High School for graduation.
