Applicants must complete the following
courses:
- English......................................4
units
At least two
units must have strong grammar and composition components,
at least one must be in English literature, and at least
one must be in American literature. Completion of College
Preparatory English I, II, III, and IV will meet this criterion.
- Mathematics.............................3
units
Includes Algebra
I (for which Applied Mathematics I and II count together
as a substitute, if a student successfully completes Algebra
II), Algebra II, and Geometry. A fourth higher level mathematics
course is strongly recommended but not required. This fourth
unit should be selected from among precalculus, calculus,
statistics, or discrete mathematics.
- Laboratory Science...................3
units
Two units
must be taken in two different fields and selected from
among biology, chemistry, or physics. The third unit may
be from the same field as one of the first two units (biology,
chemistry, or physics) or from any laboratory science for
which biology and/or chemistry is a prerequisite. Courses
in earth science, general physical science, or introductory
or general environmental science for which biology and/or
chemistry is not a prerequisite will not meet this requirement.
- Foreign Language......................2
units
Two units
of the same language.
- Social Science ..............................3
units
One unit of
US History is required; a half unit of Economics and a half
unit in Government are strongly recommended.
- Physical Education or ROTC.....1
unit
- Electives........................................4
units
Four college
preparatory units must be taken from at least three different
fields selected from among Computer Science, English, Fine
Arts, Foreign Languages, Humanities, Laboratory Science
(excluding earth science, general physical science, general
environmental science, or other introductory science courses
for which biology and/or chemistry is not a prerequisite),
Mathematics above the level of Algebra II, and Social Sciences.
It is suggested that one unit be in Computer Science which
includes programming (not just keyboarding) and one unit
in Fine Arts (i.e. appreciation of, history, or performance).
