*elective credit only
A student may earn credit through the International Baccalaureate
(IB) Program. IB scores accepted by the College may be applied toward
graduation requirements, including the academic areas requirement, and
major or minor requirements, but not towards Explorations Curriculum
requirements. For each IB score accepted, a grade of “IB” is entered on a
student’s transcript along with the Birmingham-Southern College courses for
which he or she is given credit. For a table of IB scores and course credits, see
below (all scores are for the higher level exams unless otherwise noted).
