International Baccalaureate credit

The International Baccalaureate program is a pre-university course of study for incoming freshmen and transfer students. The IB program leads to examinations that provide documentation of achievement that may qualify a student for advanced standing. Credit is awarded for IB coursework taken at the higher and standard levels if certain requirements are met. Credit awarded by another college or university for IB coursework is not transferable without proper documentation. Official IB scores must be submitted to the office of admission. Transfer credit from all sources (including IB) may not exceed 90 quarter hours.
