Colleges and universities worldwide recognise the IBDP as a superior academic program that prepares students for success in university. The Association of Indian Universities (AIU) rates the IB Diploma at the same level as Class 12 CBSE, ICSE, NIOS or State Board exams. Many educational institutions have published their policies and entry criteria for IB students on their websites. For example, Delhi University colleges have specified their conditions for admitting IB students.

The IB Diploma is recognised by universities in over 110 countries and will allow entrance to the most competitive universities worldwide. The university admission authorities recognise the academic rigour of the IBDP and value the “extra” parts of the Diploma, such as TOK, CAS and the Extended Essay.

  • The IB Diploma has a great reputation for being a tough program, allowing students to attend great colleges in India and worldwide. With IB becoming more popular, it’s becoming the go-to choice for Indian students wanting to study overseas.
  • The IB curriculum is designed to give students the skills and confidence they need to succeed in higher education. This includes research skills, organizational skills, and the ability to engage in self-learning actively. The IB curriculum also helps students develop a positive attitude towards learning, which is essential for success in college and beyond.
  • Some universities offer scholarships to IB diploma holders because they know how valuable the IBDP is.
  • With university admissions becoming increasingly competitive, admission officers are looking for students who will succeed in the university and excel. The IBDP provides students with the skills and experience necessary to be successful in university and their future careers.
IBO is a non-profit organisation that does not have a board or provide a curriculum. It has four distinct programmes- Primary Years Programme, the Middle Years Programme and the Diploma Programme, and the Career-related Programme. It provides a flexible framework for schools to tailor their curriculum based on national educational benchmarks. The approach is inquiry-based, where students are taught to find their answers. Focus is more on the concepts than the content so that it’s relevant, significant and engaging.

The CBSE and ICSE are national educational boards of India that provide a specific curriculum for every subject. Examinations are conducted in a CBSE or an ICSE setup. However, in an IB school, students have open-ended assessments in the PYP, E- exams in the MYP and Diploma exams in grade 12 that are centralised from Cardiff, Geneva.

The Theory of Knowledge is an essay written on a given title, followed by a ten-minute presentation of the essay by the student in the class. The Extended Essay is an original independent research leading a DP student to produce a comprehensible written piece of 3,500-4,000 words in any chosen subject and title. Under Creative, Action and Service (CAS), each DP student must complete at least 150 hours of work spread over one-and-a-half years, engaging in creativity, participating in sports or other physical activities, and doing social service.
