Students, if you’ve noticed a change in your Art course titles (e.g., “Drama” changed to “Theater HS”) on your transcripts, you need to send a letter explaining this change to each CalState and UC campus to which you’ve applied. Open the file below, “Art Course Title Changes – Student Letter to Colleges.doc.” Replace the red text with the correct information, and mail a signed letter to the Undergraduate Admissions Office at each college. (You can find the address at the college’s web site.)This is very important—if you don’t do this, the college may decide that you’re not meeting the Art requirement!
