International Baccalaureate (IB)

Students with an International Baccalaureate Diploma with an overall score of 24 points are considered to have the equivalent of Manitoba High School Graduation for purposes of admission to Brandon University. The IB Diploma must contain at least three Higher Level courses, with the remaining courses being either the Higher Level or the Subsidiary Level.

Students taking Grade 12 along with the IB Diploma or IB subjects will be considered for admission on the basis of their regular Grade 12 subject areas.

A minimum score of 4 is required on each higher level IB course to be considered for possible transfer of credit. Transfer credit is voluntary and students eligible to receive transfer credit must complete the form, “Request for University Credit for International Baccalaureate Results”.
