Grades of CR (credit) or P (pass) in an honors course do not earn an extra point.

Grades of D or F in an honors course do not earn an extra point.

For 10th grade, you cannot use more than 4 honors points.

Honors courses are Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate Higher Level (IB HL) and designated Standard Level (IB SL) courses, UC-transferable college courses and UC-certified honors courses that appear on your school's course list.

Give yourself an extra point for each semester of a UC honors-level course, with a maximum of 8 points between 10th and 11th grades. If you're not a California resident, referring to the A-G course list site (a database of UC-certified course lists in California schools) and the 15 college-preparatory course categories can provide guidance on the types of courses that have been UC-approved. If you're a California resident and want to know which of your classes count as A-G courses, see your high school’s A-G course list. Convert your grades to grade points.Ĭonvert the letter grades earned in all A-G courses completed between summer after 9th grade through summer after 11th grade to grade points: A=4 points, B=3 points, C=2 points, D=1 points. California applicants must earn at least a 3.0 GPA and nonresidents must earn a minimum 3.4 GPA in all A-G or college-preparatory courses to meet this requirement.
