IB STUDENTS THRIVE AT UE

Recognizing Your Commitment

At the University of Evansville, we value the hard work and skill set that you have acquired through the last four years as an International Baccalaureate student. This commitment to your academics, your community, and your world will be extremely beneficial through your college journey and beyond.

Volunteers and international students

Benefits that IB Students Enjoy at UE

  • Engage with like-minded UE students who are motivated and curious!

  • Obtain generous IB transfer credit for a wide breadth of academic courses and even for completing the IB diploma itself!

  • Enter UE with credits equaling 1-2 semesters or more of study. Students who have taken a foreign language at the HL level may already be halfway to completion of a minor in that language at UE.

  • Use IB credits to free up time to double major, add an extra language, or simply feed your intellectual curiosity.
