Petitioning International Baccalaureate Credit

Entering first year students must see their academic advisor to determine the best application of International Baccalaureate (IB) credit. Petitioning examination of credit should be completed within the student’s first term at UT Dallas, but not later than the first day of the student’s graduating term. A first year student must weigh the advantages of accepting college credit through IB exams against the possible impact such credit might have on tuition rebate eligibility and their readiness for subsequent courses in an academic sequence. UT Dallas must receive an official score report from the testing agency that provided the examination. UT Dallas does not accept examination credit from other higher education institutions’ transcripts.

In accordance with Texas Education Code 51.968, The University of Texas at Dallas will award undergraduate course credit for achieving the required IB examination scores below. Students who have earned an International Baccalaureate Diploma and present IB exam scores of 4 or higher should consult an academic advisor to review credit application.
