Open Day Planner
The 2023 Open Day planner has been released. You can access it here.
We strongly recommend students in Yr 11 and Yr 10 make the most of Open Days, before they get too busy in Yr 12.
Open Days are a great way to explore tertiary study options – you get to visit various campus facilities, speak to people studying and teaching the courses you are interested in and find out what opportunities such as exchange, internships and scholarships are on offer.
IB Recognition Statement Database
IB has a new resource for prospective students and parents to help university applicants find the best fit for them: The IB Recognition Statement Database.
The country or territory search function allows users to view published statements for each country or territory, including any official agreements or policies from the national or state governing bodies regarding IB curricula. Additionally, for the United States and Canada, there is a state or province search function as well.
The university function enables users to view individual universities within each country or territory and what each one has set as admissions criteria regarding IB programmes and courses, grades and subjects.
