About the International Baccalaureate
The International Baccalaureate is a widely recognized two-year comprehensive program for high school grades 11 and 12. It offers an intellectually rigorous and academically demanding curriculum based on internationally recognized standards. IB students may complete coursework for the diploma or they may receive course certificates without meeting those requirements. In either case, the Higher Level IB courses include two years of instruction and are viewed on par with Advanced Placement coursework.
To receive IB credit
It is the policy of 澳门六合彩官网直播 to award college credit for HL exam scores of 5 and higher. Standard Level (SL) exams are not awarded credit. An IB transcript must be sent to the 澳门六合彩官网直播 Admissions Office for credit consideration.
English credit
Students receiving a score of 6 or 7 on the English HL examination will have a choice of course credit at 澳门六合彩官网直播. Students will be emailed a form that allows them to choose which course for which they want credit but they are encouraged to consult with their academic advisor first to determine which course best meets the needs of their academic program.
