RAI approved courses

The RAI Core Course Lists provide each Iowa high school with a list of their respective courses that are accepted for the Regent Admission Index (RAI). Completion of core courses is one of the three factors considered in the admission of freshmen to the Iowa Regent universities. These lists are based on the previous Winter course data submitted by school districts to the Iowa Department of Education, and updated each August. For more information on the RAI or the SCED code system used to determine which high school courses are RAI-eligible, go to: http://www.regents.iowa.gov/RAI/

How to Make Changes to an RAI List
School officials who wish to request that courses be added or removed from their current RAI Core Course List should contact Cassie Keefer in the Admissions Office at Iowa State University by email at ckeefer@iastate.edu. For courses that need to be added, please be sure to include the following information:

• Course title
• SCED code
• Local course code
• Number of Carnegie units (e.g. 0.33 for one trimester, 0.5 for one semester, 1 for two semesters)

You may search by the associated high school or an updated date and/or range. If the school isn't in the filter listing, it doesn't have an approved courses document available.

You can also download a zip file containing the most recent document for every school.
