Our High School scholars are able to earn an additional IB diploma alongside their Wayside Schools diploma. This is a prestigious and internationally recognized diploma given to scholars who successfully complete the DP program. An IB diploma can give scholars preferred acceptance to top-tier universities worldwide.
A recent survey conducted by IB shows that the University of Texas acceptance rate for applicants with an IB diploma is 89 percent, compared to an overall average of 61 percent. Similarly, Texas A&M accepted 92.5 percent of IB diploma applicants, compared to their overall average of 68 percent. Sci-Tech High School was authorized to offer the Diploma Programme in 2016 and it is also a member of Texas IB Schools (TIBS). |
