College Recognition

Recognition of IB Diploma Program in Indian Universities

Since 1983 International Baccalaureate Diploma has been recognized by the Association of Indian universities as an entry qualification to all universities in India. The IBO produces and issues for universities a document detailing percentage equivalency along with the transcript of results. To request this service, students must notify their Diploma Programme (DP) coordinator of their intention to gain entrance into an Indian university. The coordinator will then submit the request using the Request for results service on IBIS (secured website for IB coordinators).

Students applying to Universities in India need an equivalence certificate. They can either apply to the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) upon release of their results, specifying what professional courses they are applying for, or apply directly to the eligibility department of the university they wish to attend.

Admission to most university courses is based on the academic achievement in Class 12 or entrance test. Entry requirements vary from university to university and course to course. Prior to commencing the DP, students and parents must be familiar with the required subject combinations and levels for the student’s future career path; this should ensure students’ eligibility for particular professional courses. A student interested in studying an undergraduate course must make direct contact with the college or university he or she would like to attend to check specific course and entry requirements.

The IBDP prepares students for university entrance in India and all around the world. In fact, the IBDP is currently considered to be the best university preparation course in the world – this is a feature of the IBDP that university representatives themselves advocate, as they actively recruit IBDP graduates.

General recognition of schools in India

The IB maintains a list of authorized schools in India on their public website. Please check: http://www.ibo.org/country/IN/index.cfm

Please refer to the Guide for University Admissions in India for the list of universities which have policy statements accepting IB students. http://www.ibo.org/ibap/universityrecognition/

Though all Universities in India accept IB students, the guide only mentions Universities/colleges which have issued Policy Statement to the IB.

The IB is committed to supporting the large proportion of students who wish to remain in India for their undergraduate studies. The IB regional office and other schools are constantly working on the recognition issues and the acceptance level will increase over a period of time.
