International Baccalaureate Test Scores
Folsom Lake College may award college credit for international baccalaureate (IB) higher-level (HL) course completion, if the course work is compatible with the college's curriculum. IB test scores may be used to meet Folsom Lake College AA/AS general education requirements, California State University (CSU) general education requirements, and Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). No credit will be granted for lower-level course work completed in the IB program.
A student may receive credit for IB tests they have successfully passed once the following requirements are met:
- Official copies of test scores are on file with Admissions and Records
- Student has completed twelve (12) units of credit and has a minimum 2.0 grade point average (GPA)
Students should be aware that other colleges and universities have the right to accept, modify, or reject the use of IB scores towards their graduation requirements. Check with your counselor to determine whether these test results will be accepted at the transfer institution of your choice.
Students who have earned credit from an IB exam should not take a comparable college course because transfer credit will not be granted for both.
CSU IB Credit
Visit CSU's IB webpage to find information on how credit is granted for admission and general education. Please note that each campus in the CSU system individually determines how it will apply external examination credit in the major. For more information about IB credit, consult a counselor.
