How to include non-specified coursework in my UC application?

I'm working on my UC application, and I've taken some courses that don't fit neatly into the categories they provide. How should I include this coursework in my application? Is there a section for 'other' or additional courses?

Adding non-specified coursework in your UC application can be a bit confusing since the categories provided may not perfectly incorporate the type of course you took. However, there is a way to include these unique courses in your application.

First, under the 'Academic History' section, you'll find a subsection labelled 'A-G Courses.' Although UC applications are designed around the a-g course requirements, there is a category designated "G: College-Preparatory Electives" where you can include any non-specified coursework that might still be considered college-preparatory in nature.

If your course doesn't fit into any of the A-G categories, you can use the 'Additional Comments' box within the same 'Academic History' section to provide context for these courses. Make sure to include the course name, where you took it, its length, and what you learned from the course. Emphasize how the course contributed to your academic development and any special circumstances surrounding it.

Additionally, you may describe any unique or non-specified coursework in the 'Activities and Awards' section, particularly if the course was part of an extracurricular program or a special interest pursued outside of school.

Remember that any course you list should have academic value and relevance to your college education. Make sure to explain its significance and demonstrate its impact on your overall educational experience in your UC application. This will help college admissions officers understand the value and relevance of the coursework you've completed outside the traditional categories.
