CSU Application Guide
d.tech Class 2018
D.tech is changing the names of their courses this year, as part of the transition to
PowerSchool. A student’s mid-year & FINAL transcript will reflect these new course names.
Although course names have been approved by the UC, both the CalState Application and the
UC Application show the “old” course names. I reached out to both the CSU & UC and both told
me that students should report courses as they will appear on their FINAL transcript.
Given this name change, this guide will provide important information for how to enter your
d.tech courses in the CSU Application using the new course names. It will also cover entering
BYU and Community College Classes.
HIGH SCHOOL COURSEWORK SECTION
Students should enter all A-G classes (see “ag” tag to the left of the course on the
transcript). In addition, students can list Design Lab on their transcript.
COURSE NAME CHANGES: d.tech is changing the names of its classes this year and the
new names will be reflected on your mid-year and final transcript.
You MUST enter the course names that will appear on your FINAL transcript and NOT
those that appear on your current SchoolPathways Transcript OR the ones that will
auto-fill in the CalState Apply Account.
Here is a table that shows the courses as they appear on your transcript and the
names that you must MANUALLY enter into the CalState Apply Account:

Scroll to the bottom and select “Update A-G Courses”
For each high school grade, enter the category A-G for that course - - see table
above to find the A-G category. Exception - Design Lab class is not A-G, so students
leave this blank.
Note: Economics, Engineering & Creative Writing are a G class.
For your college classes. Go to the UC A-G website, search on your college and then
find the course you took - to find the UC A-G category.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A FULL YEAR OF “G”, but you took an extra year of any of the
A-F courses (i.e. 3rd year science, 4th year math, 3rd year language) - you can count
that extra year as a “G”. You will need to have at least one year of G in order to be
CSU-eligible.
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM (EOP)
The CSU Educational Opportunity Program is designed to improve Student Academic
Services of low-income and educationally disadvantaged students. An EOP student has
the potential to perform satisfactorily in the CSU but has not been able to realize this
potential because of economic or educational background. The program provides
admission, academic, and financial assistance to EOP-eligible undergraduate students.

If you qualify for EOP, I strongly recommend that you apply. Please see Kathleen if
you have any questions.
