iLEAD Hybrid learners on both the A-G and customized paths may choose to apply directly to four-year colleges or universities following high school. Learners planning to apply directly to UC/CSU schools should follow our A-G path and take A-G approved courses. Learners considering private and out-of-state colleges should also follow a college-prep course of study and take rigorous courses, whether A-G or customized. Selecting rigorous materials and courses will prepare learners for college testing and college-level courses beyond high school.
