International Baccalaureate Credit

For Modern Language, students credit hours are granted for the High Level (HL) subject examinations and the Standard Level (SL) subject examinations of the International Baccalaureate Program. For Modern Languages & Cultures, students scoring in the 5 to 7 range on HL examinations will receive 4 to 8 credit hours at the intermediate level (200) and students scoring in the 5 to 7 range on SL examinations will receive 4 to 8 credit hours at the introductory level (100), depending on their scores (please see the chart below). A and B course designations by the International Baccalaureate Program are treated the same. Combined Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate credit may not exceed 90 credit hours when combined with transfer credit from either two-year and four-year colleges and universities. Credit will not be granted for scores from two programs which appear to be equivalent. In certain areas, a student may have to discuss the course, approaches, and performance with the appropriate department chair.
