College & Career Readiness Center

Each college and university system will have their own requirements for eligibility (listed below), but as a rule of thumb, students should:

• Maintain a GPA of around 2.75
• Stay on track to graduate high school
• Meet the minimum A-G requirement classes

What are the A-G Requirements?

They are a set of 15 courses students must take in their high school coursework in order to be eligible to apply to 4-year institutions. The courses needed are as followed...

1. History/Social Science - 2 years needed (1 year World history, 1 year US history)
2. English - 4 years needed
3. Math - 3 years needed, 4 recommended (must take Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II)
4. Science - 2 years needed, 3 recommended (1 year biological science, 1 year physical science)
5. Language Other Than English - 2 years needed (must be the same language for the 2 years to count)
6. Visual/Performing Arts - 1 year needed
7. College Preparatory Elective - 1 year needed (courses beyond those used to satisfy the requirements of the A-F subjects can fulfill this requirement)

Check which Wilson classes satisfy the A-G requirements here.
