Current International Baccalaureate Guidelines
Note: Effective immediately, the Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) has mandated changes on how state institutions may award International Baccalaureate (IB) credit towards breadth requirements as part of general education. The IB diploma no longer waives general education breadth requirements; however, students with acceptable IB standard and higher-level exam scores will receive credit as outlined below.
