International Baccalaureate (IB)

International Baccalaureate

�̲�ֱ�� recognizes International Baccalaureate (IB) higher-level exams when awarding credit and course exemptions. We award up to 8 credit hours (per exam) for IB higher-level (HL) scores of 4 or greater. No advanced standing is awarded for standard-level exams, regardless of the score earned. Exams are scored 7-1 (7=A+, 6=A, 5=B, 4=C).

To be considered for IB credit, have a copy of your official IB transcript sent to the IU Northwest Office of Admissions. For more information visit .
