Non-Traditional Credit

International Baccalaureate (IB)

360-992-2805

Clark College recognized the International Baccalaureate (IB) program as a coherent, challenging course of study and responds individually to each participant’s petition for granting of college credit. Students may be awarded credit for completing individual areas of study within the program. Credit is posted with an “S” grade at the end of the quarter for which the score report was received, once a transcript record has been established. No credits/units will be awarded for an examination if the student has already earned credit in a duplicate course; a maximum of forty-five (45) credits/units in IB coursework can apply towards BAS, AA, or AST degree requirements.

Once scores are received and reviewed, an email will be sent to the student at the Clark College student email address regarding the credits/units to be awarded. IB credits/units are posted to the transcript at the end of the term in which the scores were submitted as long as the student is enrolled in that term.

Students should have an official copy of their IB scores sent to:

Clark College
Attn: Enrollment Services/GHL 128
