Record
Number of Schools Participate in ELC
More than
1,200 California schools — comprising 98 percent of public schools
and more than 83 percent of private schools — submitted high school
transcripts for the Eligibility in the Local Context (ELC) and Dual
Admissions (DAP) programs this year. The University identified more
than 14,000 ELC and 3,500 DAP students.
UC started online applications for the 38,000 students evaluated for
ELC and DAP. These pre-populated applications displayed demographic
information and coursework for ninth through 11th grade. Students were
required to edit the information and make any needed corrections such
as grade changes. They also had to add their 12th grade coursework and
any additional information required to complete the academic record.
The University continues to streamline the electronic submission processes
for high school transcripts. Last year, 25 schools with the SASIxp student
information system (SIS) participated in a pilot for submitting paperless
transcripts via the Internet. This year, 165 schools submitted transcripts
electronically, including 31 from the Los Angeles Unified School District
(LAUSD). LAUSD was able to submit paperless transcripts from the district
office, alleviating the load on counselors at school sites. Next year,
schools that use the Aries by Eagle student information system will
also be able to send transcripts electronically for ELC evaluation.
School districts interested in creating a file layout similar to that
used by LAUSD may contact the ELC program by
e-mail.
