International Baccalaureate (IB)

Students who have completed an IB diploma with a score of 30 or higher will be awarded 30 credits toward their degree and, in some cases, toward their major and general education requirements. They should contact the office of Student Advising Services at (716) 645-6013 for more information.

Students who completed an IB diploma with a score of 29 or less and students who did not complete a diploma are guaranteed credit only for higher-level exams with scores of “5” or better. This credit will apply toward their degree and, in some cases, toward major and general education requirements. IB higher-level exam articulation is available on the alternative exam credit—international baccalaureate exam (IB) chart.

No credit is awarded for IB English language exams taken in a non-native English-speaking country or by a student whose native language is not English. A maximum of 30 credits may be awarded for an IB diploma or IB exams.
