COURSE REQUIREMENTS FOR COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES College entrance requirements often exceed the minimum requirements for graduation. In the State of Illinois, there are significant requirements for the high school courses expected for college admissions. Many colleges require or expect completion of 4 credits in English, not counting Speech, Drama, or Journalism. Other common minimum requirements are completion of at least Algebra II in math, 2 and sometimes 3-4 years of the same foreign language, 3 years of social science and science, not counting physical science, and a total of at least sixteen credits in these areas. Students planning to attend the University of Illinois are advised to take at least three years of the same foreign language and preferably four since this may help meet their bachelor’s degree requirement. The Guidance Department has information on general guidelines, for admissions into the major state universities in Illinois, as well as catalogs from other universities. Vocational courses may be substituted in some cases. Please note that for specific information on ACT/SAT, class rank and course requirements, consult the college catalog and other guides in the Career Guidance Center. Students can also use the BHS Web Site to access information from colleges via the Internet: http://www.bhs87.org Students are also advised that many selective colleges and scholarship programs encourage and often expect students to maintain a full seven credit load each year

The approved courses for this purpose are resource management, economics, first semester of Intro to Business,WECEP, or Interrelated Cooperative Education.

Page 27: Let people at home know you will need their help and about an hour of their time to review courses you are considering.

Advanced Placement courses are offered in English, French, Spanish, Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Physics, American History, American Government, Psychology, Music Theory, Studio Art, Statistics and Probability, and Computer Science. The College Board offers an examination in May in a variety of instructional areas. Students scoring 3 or higher on these tests are generally eligible for college credit and/or placement. Students taking AP classes are strongly urged to take this examination. Students taking advanced courses in other areas are also able to take the appropriate AP examination. Strong students in other senior level classes are encouraged to consider preparing for the AP examination in other areas. Bloomington High School also offers a wide range of Honors courses in English, Mathematics, and Science. Many selective colleges report that the single most important criterion for admission is the strength of the student’s high school program. Honors and Advanced Placement classes help establish this, whereas study halls do not.

CHANGE OF CLASS POLICY

Once school begins in the fall, students may change a course only for one of the following circumstances: An error was made in scheduling. The counselor should be advised immediately. It can be justified because of a change in career plans. A course is required for admission or a scholarship program at the college or

university the student plans to attend. A change is warranted by courses passed (or failed) in summer school. A student can justify withdrawing from an elective subject. A student can cite an extreme personal emergency. Even where one of the above circumstances applies, students can only add classes in the fall on a space-available basis.

P. 6Course Description Guide

Page 31: Let people at home know you will need their help and about an hour of their time to review courses you are considering.

*Withdrawal From An Individual Class: A student who withdraws from an individual class will be placed in a study hall and will lose credit for that class. A student who withdraws from a class prior to the end of the first or third grading periods will have a “WP” (Withdraw Passing) or a “WF” (Withdraw Failing) placed in their permanent record. Students are advised that “WP” and “WF” grades may be viewed negatively by some colleges and scholarship programs. For example, a grade of “WF” is sometimes treated as an “F”. Some programs also look at the number of courses taken each year and may ask for an explanation if the number is unusually low. A student who withdraws from a class after the end of the first or third grading periods will receive a grade of “F” for the entire semester.

GRADES, GRADE POINT AVERAGE, CLASS RANK Bloomington High School uses a grading system that includes the letters A (superior), B (very good), C (average), D (poor), and F (failure). Study halls and student assistantships do not count for credit and are not included in any grade point average or class rank calculations. In order to determine grade point average, letter grades are given numerical equivalents in all courses. Grade point average is then determined by dividing the sum of the numerical grades by the number of units attempted. With some exceptions, letter grades are given the following numerical values: A-5; B-4; C-3; D-2; F-1.

Course Description Guidep. 6

Page 33: Let people at home know you will need their help and about an hour of their time to review courses you are considering.

Grades in Honors, Advanced, and Advanced Placement courses are given a higher numerical equivalent (A-5; B-5; C-4; D-3; F-2). After the grade point average is calculated, a value of .023 will be added for each A earned in any course that is specifically titled as Honors, Advanced, or Advanced Placement. Students are advised that many colleges ignore grade point averages as computed by the local high school and recalculate these for their own admission purposes. Even though a D in an Honors course may be weighted to count the same as a C in a regular class, this D may negatively impact on selection decisions at some colleges. Grades in basic level classes are given a lower numerical equivalent (A-4; B-3; C-2; D-1; F-0). These include all courses with the words "basic," “essential,” or "fundamental" in the title, as well as English as a Second Language, Alternate Education classes, and special education classes.

Page 34: Let people at home know you will need their help and about an hour of their time to review courses you are considering.

Salutatorian/Valedictorian: Students with a final grade point average of 5.621 or higher will be declared co-valedictorians. This average can be reached by earning straight A’s and taking at least twenty-seven semesters of honors or AP classes. Co-salutatorians are those whose final GPA’s are 5.552 or above, corresponding to twenty-four semesters of Honors/Adv/AP courses.

Study halls do not count for credit. Previously passed courses will not receive additional credit.

ENGLISH Freshman Composition/Grammar Essential Learner OutcomesContinuing with skills learned in eighth grade, students will explore language, including grade-level vocabulary, as a means of improving written communication skills.
