International Baccalaureate (IB) Policy
Entering freshmen may earn college credit in some subject areas by receiving satisfactory scores on the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program examinations. Credits granted may be applied toward college degree requirements. In those cases in which a corresponding UMC course does not exist, “blanket credit” may be granted with the approval of the appropriate academic discipline and such credits may be used to meet certain liberal education requirements.
