International Baccalaureate Program Riverdale High School

IB students are more engaged in high school A 2009 study compared the academic, emotional and social engagement of IB students against non-IB students in eight IB high schools. It also compared IB students to non-IB students in a national sample. On all measures IB students were more engaged in school than non-IB students. “Across each of the domains of student engagement, IB students rated their levels of engagement more highly than non‐IB students. This held true for both the targeted sample of eight schools, as well as the national sample.” This 2009 study used student responses on Indiana University’s highly regarded ‘High School Survey of Student Engagement’ to examine student engagement. This survey measures the academic, emotional and social engagement of students in the high school years. The responses of 3,499 IB students were compared with 4,193 non-IB students for eight IB world schools. The study also looked at a national sample of 42,754 students and compared the 6,720 IB students against non-IB students.

IB students more likely to attend selective colleges In a 2012 study of diverse alumni from IB programmes in Chicago public schools, researchers from the University of Chicago found that, compared to a matched sample, DP students are more likely to: enroll in college attend a more selective college stay enrolled in college. Key messages about the IB, and college admission and enrollment: IB students have a better chance of getting into college IB students are accepted at selective and highly selective universities college admissions officers recognize IB students as having chosen the most challenging academic options. In 2012, researchers from the University of Chicago compared a sample of 1888 diverse students who participated in the Diploma Programme in Chicago public schools graduates to similarly high achieving Chicago public schools peers who did not participate in the IB DP. The study found that IB DP students are more likely to attend a more selective college and are more likely to persist in college for more than two years. A summary of the ‘University of Chicago study of Chicago Public Schools study’ can be found here: http://www.ibo.org/research/policy/programmevalidation/diploma/documents/CPSResearchsummaryFinal3-3-12.pdf This study suggests that IB students are not only going to better colleges in greater numbers but are performing better once there. 01 January 2012

IB students more prepared for college 2012 study of Chicago public schools interviewed Diploma Programme alumni and found that: Students reported they felt prepared by the Diploma Programme to succeed in college. Students reported that they: felt prepared to succeed and excel in their coursework had strong academic skills, especially related to analytical writing learned academic behaviours like work ethic, motivation, time management, and help-seeking that were sources of strength in the transition to college-level work identified preparation in the IB programme as the source of their success as college students. Key messages about college readiness and success IB students report feeling more able to tackle the challenges of college IB students do better in college, with IB participation predicting college GPA and better performance on IB exams predicting better performance in college courses IB students have higher persistence and graduation rates in college As part of the study of IB students in Chicago public schools cited in the previous slide, researchers conducted qualitative analysis of interviews with 25 primarily low-income and minority Chicago public schools Diploma Programme alumni. Researchers found students felt very well prepared for college in terms of academic skills and behaviours. As cited in the previous slide, the quantitative analysis in this study demonstrated that students were more likely to attend, and persist in, college. A summary of the Chicago Public Schools study can be found here: http://www.ibo.org/research/policy/programmevalidation/diploma/documents/CPSResearchsummaryFinal3-3-12.pdf 01 January 2012

IB prepares students for college success “IB is well known to us as excellent preparation. Success in an IB programme correlates well with success at Harvard. We are pleased to see the credential of the IB Diploma Programme on the transcript.” Marlyn McGrath Lewis, Assistant Dean of Admissions, Harvard University, USA “The IB is a first-rate programme, one we are familiar with, and it prepares students well for a university like ours.” Fred Hargadon, Director of Undergraduate Admissions, Princeton University Colleges and universities recognize the effort students put into their studies in the Diploma Programme, preparing them well for success in college. 01 January 2012

Colleges recognize the value of an IB education “We know the quality of IB courses, and we think the IB curriculum is terrific.” Christoph Guttentag, Director of Admissions, Duke University “The rigour of IB Diploma requirements meets our recommendation for the strongest high school preparation possible. ... In sum, the IB diploma candidate who has met the challenge successfully receives strong consideration from the William & Mary admission committee.” Allison Jesse, former Associate Dean of Admissions, William and Mary College Colleges and universities appreciate the quality of an IB education. 01 January 2012

The average acceptance rate of IB students into university/college is 22% higher than the average acceptance rate of the total population. The acceptance rate of IB students into Ivy League institutions (Princeton, Yale, Brown, Harvard, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, University of Pennsylvania) is between 3% and 13% higher compared to the total population acceptance rate. Based on student responses to a 2011 survey conducted by the IB, IB students are admitted to colleges and universities at rates higher than the general acceptance rates for the schools. On average, IB students’ acceptance rate is 22% higher than that of the total population for the school. Even at highly selective Ivy League Universities, IB students are admitted at rates 3-13% higher than the total population.
