No Kings on Saturday
High school seniors in California are awaiting word on their public university acceptances, but thousands are locked out due to not taking required classes. Nearly half of high school students in California haven't completed the necessary courses to enroll in the University of California or California State University systems.
California high school seniors are waiting to hear about their public university acceptances. However, many are locked out due to not meeting the required classes. The University of California and California State University systems require students to earn a C or better in specific courses. Many students, especially low-income, Black, and Latino students, have low class-completion rates. Some schools don't offer the necessary courses, while others have students who don't enroll or earn below a C. Researchers say all students should be enrolled in these courses to guarantee the option of enrolling in a four-year university. One high school in Compton has achieved a high rate of students meeting the requirements through a college-going culture and exposure to various community college courses.
