Yes! You can absolutely sign up for classes that interest you — that’s one of the best parts of dual enrollment.
it’s also important to choose classes that will help you reach your future goals. If you’re planning to attend a Cal State (CSU) or University of California (UC), you’ll want to pick classes that transfer to both systems. These courses will count toward your college degree and help you save time and money after high school. Which is why we recommend the following.
The Arroyo Valley University Frequently Requested Course List shows the college classes our students most often take through dual enrollment. These courses are popular because they fit Cal-GETC requirements, transfer well to CSU and UC schools, and count toward high school credits. Use this list as a starting point when planning your classes!
Cal-GETC is a set of college classes that count for general education at both CSU and UC schools.
Choosing Cal-GETC courses helps make sure your credits transfer and saves you time and money toward your degree.
