International Baccalaureate (IB) Curriculum
If you are applying with an IB Diploma, you should present a minimum score of 28, although many programs require a higher score for admission consideration. Reported bonus points will be taken into consideration. Applicants should complete the diploma with six subjects: 3 higher level (HL) and 3 standard level (SL). You should also include specific subject requirements for the program to which you are applying among your higher and standard levels. Please note that Math Studies/Standard Level (SL) Applications and Interpretations is not an acceptable prerequisite for programs that require Advanced Functions or Calculus. You should ensure that your predicted scores are submitted using the seven-point scale.
Ontario high school students registered in an IB program will typically have their IB courses converted into Ontario U- and M-level courses. IB scores will be converted into grades on a percentage scale out of 100 by the applicant's high school. Admission and scholarships will be determined using the conversions as submitted.
Upon receipt of official final results from the IBO we will assign specific transfer credits, where applicable, to a maximum of 2.00 credits, for grades of 5 or better on higher level courses where the applicant has been awarded the IB Diploma or DP Course. Students may request a change to an unspecified credit on an individual basis within the first 30 days of the semester in which they commence their studies.
IB Math curriculum will fulfill prerequisite requirements for Ontario 3U and 4U courses as follows:
IB Curriculum Course | Ontario Curriculum Course Equivalents |
---|---|
Higher Level (HL) Analysis and Approaches |
MHF4U (Advanced Functions) MCV4U (Calculus and Vectors) MDM4U (Data Management) |
Standard Level (SL) Analysis and Approaches |
MHF4U (Advanced Functions) MCV4U (Calculus and Vectors) |
Higher Level (HL) Applications and Interpretations |
MHF4U (Advanced Functions) MCV4U (Calculus and Vectors) MDM4U (Data Management) |
Standard Level (SL) Applications and Interpretations |
MCR3U (3U Calculus) MDM4U (4U Data Management) |
Advanced Placement
If you have completed Advanced Placement Examinations with a minimum grade of 4, you will be eligible to receive university specific transfer credits (where applicable) to a maximum of 2.00 credits. Transfer credit will be assigned once an official College Board AP exam score report has been received by Admission Services. You may request to change to unspecified credit on an individual basis within the first 30 days of your first semester.
