Evidence: Australia Austria Hong Kong Philippines Although every university in Australia accepts the IB diploma, entry criteria differ from university to university. Some universities accept students on their IB point count, whereas others require the points to be converted. In most states, this is based on the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR). In Queensland, IBDP scores are converted to a QTAC scale to determine selection rank. It is considered a foreign secondary school leaving certificate, even if the school issuing the diploma is in the country. Admission decisions are at the discretion of higher education institutions. IB diploma students may apply to universities as non-JUPAS (Joint University Programmes Admissions System). Some universities in the Philippines accept the IB diploma in lieu of taking the entrance exams. France The IBDP is one of the foreign diplomas that allow students access into French universities.
