English

English is one of the four core courses you need to fulfill in order to graduate from High School. You need to take four years of English a total of 16 classes. Remember that advanced courses and online options will vary at different locations.

If you attended a high school in Utah, in another state, or outside of the United States, be sure to bring those transcripts to review which courses you can get credits for. Some English courses that are taken to prepare you for the required courses or any credits over the requirement can be applied to your elective credits area. Here is a complete list of the courses that count to fulfill your English Requirements: 

Concurrent Enrollment and Advanced Placement Courses are usually offered at a regular high school, not at an adult school. Concurrent Enrollment Courses are offered by colleges/universities. Students earn credits towards their high school diploma requirements and get credits in college or university at the same time. Advanced Placement Courses are college-level courses and students can earn college credits by passing the Advanced Placement test. Please note different Universities require different scores.
