The International Baccalaureate® (IB) Diploma Programme (DP) is recognized and respected by the world’s leading universities, and evidence suggests that higher rates of DP students go on to university and higher education study than non-IB students.
The IB has launched a database that contains recognition statements for countries/territories, states and provinces (for USA and Canada respectively) and universities internationally.
The database features a selection of countries, states, and provinces that recognize the IB and are popular destinations for IB students (ibo.org).
