TRANSFER CAUTION: CSU and UC policies vary on the use of IB credit to satisfy academic requirements. Students who use IB scores to satisfy prerequisites at MJC may encounter later challenges meeting academic requirements at the transfer institution. Students should review IB credit policies at their targeted transfer institutions before attempting to use IB credit to satisfy prerequisites at MJC.
If the student plans to transfer to a public or private university to pursue a baccalaureate degree, bear in mind that IB credit-granting policies vary at each institution for:
