Limitations
- Credit may be earned for the International Baccalaureate (IB) examinations with scores of 4 or higher.
- A score of 5, 6 or 7 on Higher Level exams is required to grant credit for IGETC certification.
- An acceptable IB score for IGETC equates to either 3 semester or 4 quarter units for certification purposes.
- 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 units count toward eligibility for admission. The units may not apply towards Associate Degrees for Transfer (AD-T) or the baccalaureate degree. The units may not all apply toward certification of the corresponding GE-Breadth area.
- All units listed are semester units.
