2012 COLLEGE ADMISSIONS STANDARDS

The minimum college admission standards to public four-year colleges in Washington will be changing beginning 2012.  This change will be for this year’s 9th graders.  (NOTE: This requirement differs from high school graduation requirements that are determined by the State Board of Education and local school districts.)  The HECB (Higher Education Coordinating Board) has provided the following link to several documents that will help schools, students, and parents understand the changes.

 Below are the 2012 minimum freshmen admission requirements. 

Beginning 2012**

15 Credits (in subject areas below)

Note: The term “credit” is used to designate that a student has satisfactorily completed a College Academic Distribution Requirement (CADR) course during the high school academic year. School districts may use alternative or block scheduling that permit students to earn a credit in less than a full year.

**See Science below for CADR effective in 2010; all other CADR listed below take effect 2012.

English – 4 credits (must include 3 credits of college preparatory composition or literature). Passage of 10th-grade WASL-reading is equivalent to earning the first 2 CADR credits of high school English.

Mathematics – 3 credits (Algebra I, geometry, and Algebra II, or Integrated Math I, II, and III) Passage of 10th-grade WASL-math is equivalent to earning the first 2 CADR credits of high school math (Algebra & Geometry or Integrated Math I and II). Note: Successful completion of math through pre-calculus meets the requirement for 3 credits of math and the senior-year math requirement (below).

Mathematics – Senior year, during the senior year of high school, students must earn a credit in a math-based quantitative course, e.g., statistics, applied math, or appropriate career and technical courses. An algebra-based science course taken during the senior year also would satisfy this requirement and part of the science requirement below. Note: The senior-year math requirement does not mean a 4th credit of math is required, nor does it require a higher level of math. The intent of this requirement is for seniors to take meaningful math.

Science – 2 credits of laboratory science, including one credit of algebra-based biology, chemistry, or physics (**required for admission to public baccalaureate institutions beginning summer of 2010).

Note: Western Washington University specifies that the algebra-based science course be chemistry or physics.

World Languages – 2 credits of the same World Language, Native American language, or American Sign Language.

Social Science – 3 credits (history or other social sciences)

Arts – 1 credit of fine, visual, or performing arts—or 1 additional credit in other CADR subject areas.

Note: The University of Washington and Western Washington University specify one-half credit in fine, visual or performing arts; the other half may be in the arts or in an academic elective.
