You can search to find a California high school, program, online publisher or community college's UC \"a-g\" course list. Or, you can search by keywords including name, city, zip or College Board code. If you don't know all keywords for your search criteria, you can enter a portion of the name in quotes. For example, a search for a school name of \"Washington\" will result in all schools where \"Washington\" appears any place in the name. Use the \"All Course Lists\" tab when searching for a community college course list. If you're looking for an online school, under the schools tab, enter \"online\" and your search results will provide a list of online schools. Like a Google search, search results will be based with most relevant items appearing first.
