When UC grants honors status for a maximum of 1 year of a 2-year Higher Level IB sequence, which year (11th or 12th grade) receives honors weight?
As a general rule, the second year of the HL sequence (12th grade) will receive the weighted grade point. UC faculty and staff are aware that students would prefer to receive the weighted grade point in the 11th grade, but this seemed illogical to faculty. The faculty did offer the provision that would allow IB schools that believe that the first year is more academically rigorous and should be granted honors status instead of the second year to submit to UC their version of the IB course description requesting a shift in honors designation from the second year to the first. Such submissions will be reviewed for approval by faculty. This rule will be in effect for students entering the University in Fall 2006.
