HTH students exceed the A-G requirements in critical areas such as Math, Science, and Social Sciences. For example, while the UC and CSU systems require a minimum of three years of math, HTH encourages students to take advanced courses that prepare them for college-level work in calculus, statistics, and beyond. Similarly, in Science, our students engage in hands-on, project-based learning across disciplines like biology, chemistry, and physics, often taking more years of science than required. In the Social Sciences, HTH fosters critical thinking and civic engagement through in-depth exploration of history, government, and economics, ensuring students are well-prepared to engage in complex societal issues.
High Tech High (HTH) goes beyond merely ensuring that its graduates meet the University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU) admissions standards—our curriculum and graduation requirements are intentionally designed to surpass these benchmarks. While California’s A-G requirements set a foundational standard for college readiness, HTH equips students with a deeper, more comprehensive academic experience that prepares them to thrive in higher education and beyond.
Our rigorous expectations and innovative educational model ensure that HTH graduates are not just college-ready but college-competitive, particularly for UC and CSU campuses, which rank among the nation’s most prestigious public universities. HTH students leave with more than just a transcript; they graduate with the confidence, skills, and experiences necessary to succeed in a dynamic, rapidly changing world.
