International Baccalaureate (IB) courses are similar to AP courses in that both are programs of study are designed to challenge students through a college preparatory curriculum. Both programs require students to take end-of-course assessments in May with the possibility of earning college credit. Whereas AP promotes individual classes that are independent from each other, IB courses are more holistic, using common threads to link subject areas and tie everything together with the Theory of Knowledge class—a philosophy course taught from a Catholic worldview perspective. International Baccalaureate fosters a lifelong interest in learning as well as informed and responsible citizenship.
