  • A Survey of Core Requirements at Our Nation's Colleges and Universities
    A Survey of Core Requirements at Our at Our Requirements of Core A Survey and Universities Colleges Nation’s WHAT will they LEARN ? 2016–17 A Survey of Core Requirements at Our Nation’s Colleges and Universities American Council of Trustees and Alumni FOREWORD Early this year, in a Gallup survey of universities, nearly 100% of provosts said they felt their institutions were either “very effective” or “somewhat effective” at preparing students for the workforce. But a survey of employers showed that over 70% found college graduates were not well-prepared in skills such as “written communication,” “working with numbers/statistics,” “critical/analytical thinking,” and second-language proficiency.1 This is a wake-up call for students, parents, and policymakers, at a time when college graduates are already too familiar with both financial debt and intellectual deficit. Prospective students and their parents, along with taxpayers and policymakers, are increasingly looking for institutions that provide not rhetoric, but real academic value in return for the dollars invested. Since WhatWillTheyLearn.com was launched in 2009, students and parents—more than 460,000 of them—have thronged to our website to see for themselves what various institutions require in the way of coursework. Increasingly, it has become an important tool in the college selection process. And the media have taken notice. Nationally syndicated columnists have discussed our research and findings. And along with local newspapers and radio and television stations, they have reached millions across the country.2 Our project team is increasingly called upon to provide technical support for colleges and universities wishing to strengthen their core offerings.

All rights reserved. A Survey of Core Requirements at Our Nation’s Colleges and Universities American Council of Trustees and Alumni What Will They Learn ? 2018-19 FOREWORD e image of a college student has steadily changed over the past few generations. e expectation of a college student used to be that of a “scholar” and a learned individual. Today, many colleges do not boast so much of their libraries, classrooms, or even their academic programs. Swimming pools, activity centers, and food courts tend to ll colleges’ marketing publications. College outreach emphasizes amenities rather than the substance of teaching and learning. is phenomena has frustrated employers who struggle to nd quali ed employees. To ensure that students graduate prepared for meaningful careers, and, equally important, informed citizenship, higher education must reengage its purpose and dedicate itself to higher academic standards. Ten years ago, the American Council of Trustees and Alumni (ACTA) gathered data on 100 colleges from the U.S. News & World Report’s annual list of “Best Colleges and Universities.” ACTA questioned whether these elite institutions were requiring their students to take rigorous, college-level courses in the core areas crucial for success. e results of this survey were dismal—showing that students could bypass essential courses that cultivate critical thinking, logic, writing skills, and mathematics, and revealing that American colleges are often failing to provide a truly collegiate education.

Because UC is such a THE UC APPLICATION: huge system, any changes to their testing are always big RANKING THE UCSD news. Back in our June newsletter, we discussed the changes COLLEGES that UC had announced in terms of their testing policy. They had said they were going test-optional for this year and next year, followed by two years of a test-blind pilot program. PATH TO BEING PRE-MED However, that plan has recently changed. Starting with 2021 PART III: UNDERSTANDING fall applicants, all UC campuses will be test blind. Just a THE COMMITTEE LETTER reminder, test blind means that even if you submit your scores, they will not be considered as part of the application. This decision came as the result of a lawsuit, which stated that using test scores was biased against students with disabilities because of the difficulty to safely take tests due to Covid-19. (CONTINUED) As most schools state in their test-optional policies, students who don’t submit a score will not be at a disadvantage, but what that will look like in the reading of applications is not always as clear. A few important logistical things to mention about testing is the fact that ACT has announced that they will cancel their international test dates for December 2020 and February 2021.

Score of 6 or 7 on Standard Level English A exam meets UC Entry Level Writ- ing requirement but no unit credit is granted. The University of California grants 8 quarter units of credit for all International Baccalaureate Higher Level exams on which a student scores 5 or higher and 6 quarter units of credit for the IB Diploma where a student earns a score of 30 or more. For IB exams not listed here, consult an academic adviser. Students should be advised that college courses taken before or after attending UC might duplicate IB examinations. Additionally, exams might duplicate each other (for example, an AP or IB exam in the same subject area*). If the student does dupli- cate an exam with another exam of the same subject content, and/or an exam with a college course, credit will be awarded only once.

  • Advanced Placement Credit: Application to College and Major Requirements, 2021–22
    Advanced Placement Credit: Application to College and Major Requirements, 2021–22 The University of California grants credit for most College Board Advanced Placement Tests (AP) on which a student scores 3 or higher. The credit may be subject credit for use on a minor or prerequisite to a major, or credit toward general-education requirements or elective units toward graduation. The number of units granted for AP tests are not counted toward the maximum number of credits required for formal declaration of an undergraduate major. Students who enter the university with AP credit do not have to declare a major earlier than other students, nor are they required to graduate earlier. A student cannot receive credit for a UC San Diego course that duplicates AP credit. Where the chart says “exempt” or “equal to a UC San Diego course number,” that course may not be taken for credit. Students who are fluent in a language other than English that was not their high school language of instruction should not overlook the opportunity to get AP credit by taking the foreign language/literature exams. Students should be advised that college courses taken before or after attending UC might duplicate AP examinations. Additionally, exams might duplicate each other (for example, an AP or IB exam in the same subject area*). If the student does duplicate an exam with another exam of the same subject content, and/or an exam with a college course, credit will be awarded only once. Note: Please see a college academic adviser for clarification of any questions you may have.
