How to send IB results to universities?
US universities
In your final year of the IB Diploma Programme, with the assistance of your DP Coordinator, you can select up to six choices to receive your results automatically once they’re released. Be sure to include your U.S. college choices in these slots, as the IB sends the results directly to the selected universities, usually in early July for the May exam session. Most U.S. universities receive them electronically, but if a university doesn’t accept electronic delivery, you can request the IB to send the results via post. If you didn’t choose a university before the results were released or need to send them to additional institutions, you can request this through the IB portal for a fee.
UK universities
If you’ve applied to UK universities through UCAS, you don’t need to worry about sending your IB results yourself. You have six slots available before your exams to specify where your results will be sent, and it’s essential to include UCAS as one of these options. Once you do, UCAS will automatically distribute your scores to the universities you’ve chosen as your firm and insurance choices. Be sure to check with your IB Coordinator to confirm that UCAS is listed among your selections.
Dutch universities
To send your IB results to Dutch universities, start by checking the specific requirements of the universities you're interested in, as some may have particular procedures for international applicants. Generally, for most institutions, all you need to do is include them in the available slots in the IB student portal. The IB will then automatically send your results to the universities listed in the portal.
Irish universities
Sending your IB results to Irish universities is quite similar to the process for UK universities. Simply ensure that the CAO (Central Applications Office) is included in one of the six designated slots. CAO will then forward your results to the universities you’ve selected in your application.
Other universities
When applying to other universities, it’s important to check their specific requirements for sending IB results. In most cases, you will need to include them in the designated slots. Be sure to verify whether they accept electronic versions of your results; if not, notify your IB Diploma Programme Coordinator to arrange for the IB to send a physical copy. Remember, you can also request to send your results after results day through the IB portal, but be aware that this will incur an additional fee.
