What course subject is not required for college admission?

There's no single course subject that's universally *not* required for college admission. Requirements vary wildly depending on the college, the applicant's intended major, and even the applicant's high school.

However, subjects like Advanced Placement (AP) courses or specific electives (e.g., a particular type of art or music) are generally *not required*, although they can be highly beneficial for admission. Colleges look at the overall academic rigor and strength of a student's high school record rather than the presence or absence of a specific course.
