Universities that REALLY like IB students.

The University of Tulsa ! They give out scholarships for IB students with the diploma and even give you money for trying to get the IB diploma whether or not you got it.

What has happened to the IBO's University Recognition Directory at:

http://www.ibo.org/d...ctory/index.cfm

The directory has worked well in the past, but recently any Search gives a 404 Error.

Is the directory still available at another URL?

Although the above link is broken, I discovered that it is still readily possible to access the IBO University Recognition Database. You just have to go to the country information page at:

http://www.ibo.org/country/

Then select the country of interest using the menu under "The IB in…"

Then below the information about IB schools in the country, you also find the menu for its universities, giving their contact information and IB policy statements.

The information in the university directory may not always be accurate, however. For example, the minimum IB diploma score for entry to the EPFL in Switzerland is 38 points out of 42, not 30 out of 42 as indicated in the directory!
