Elective courses may be taken as alternative classes, or as a fifth hour. The Upper Division also provides for the choice between an academic track or an open track.
Many elective courses are available for both academically and non-academically oriented students.
Core Courses Students must complete the core courses of the Lower Division before taking courses in the Upper Division. Students who plan to go to U.S. colleges and universities are encouraged to take at least four courses including Grammar and College Preparation at Level 5 and College Preparation at Level 6, depending on placement examination results.
