International Baccalaureate (IB) Credit
IB Credit
In accordance with the policies set by the Utah System of Higher Education, students enrolled at the University of Utah who achieve a qualifying score on International Baccalaureate (IB) exams, as determined by the Utah System of Higher Education, can be awarded university credit.
Please submit an evaluation request to the Office of Admissions to have the credit added to your records.
If you have both AP and IB credit, the IB credit is awarded first, then any additional AP credit will be awarded. If IB credit has been awarded and duplicates AP credit, the AP credit will be reduced by the amount of credit awarded for an IB subject in a specific area.
You must be matriculated at the University of Utah to have IB credit recorded.
In accordance with the state mandated common exam equivalencies, students with passing scores will have credit awarded for any exams with equivalents.
**Exam equivalencies are subject to change without notice
Beginning March 2023, all prior learning credit will be evaluated and posted according to the equivalencies in place at the time the exam was taken. Credit posted prior to March 2023 will not be changed with this new policy. Questions about posting of exam credit should be addressed to Office of Admissions at admissions_ug@utah.edu. Questions regarding exam equivalencies should be addressed to the Registrar’s Office at articulation@utah.edu.
