<p>The TO courses that will be offered have been up on the web server for quite some time now, Nikara posted the link a while back: [CORE</a> | USC Schedule of Classes](<a href=“http://web-app.usc.edu/soc/20083/core.html]CORE”>302 Found)</p>
<p>However, there is no description of what each course is, reading list, etc. I have been nagging D to contact the TO office and get this info for several weeks now, but as usual she is procrastinating till the last possible moment. I have had to fight the urge to “just do it” for a while.</p>
<p>I believe that it was Nikara who also posted that you can meet TO core requirements with AP classes the same way you can do it for the regular GE.</p>

mdcissp, relax, take a deep breath, then back away from the kid 
You and your husband will not be there when classes are chosen, in fact from accounts on this site the parents attend general-purpose and tear-jerker sessions (how to pay for college, how to deal with the crisis midnight phone call, etc), and don’t see the kids at all except for the social parts of the schedule. Even if he manages to talk his way into the advising sessions, what about next semester? You can always change things after the fact, so might as well let the kids do their thing, and ask them to change the day after if you feel that it is really necessary (e.g., if they signed up for the boating class during the first semester of freshman year).</p>
