- It is the policy of Skyline High School to support those students applying to non-US universities by providing the requested IB predicted grades. All IB Predicted Grades requests should be routed through the IB Coordinator, and should include the requisite university form and/or process for submittal of those grades. Under no circumstances will IB Predicted Grades be provided directly to students and/or their parents. And, under no circumstances will IB Predicted grades be provided to colleges and universities that ask for this data as an optional reporting measure of student performance. Please allow ample lead time for any request of IB Predicted Grades.
College Selection Information
When looking for post-high school educational options be sure to thoroughly research your options. Talk to your parents, neighbors, peers, teachers, the College and Career Specialists, as well as your school counselor for ideas. Network with past graduates from your school, access local alumni associations for schools you are interested in, and most importantly VISIT if you can.

College Credit Information
A Dual Credit Lookup tool is now available through the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. This tool allows students to search and compare how their high school IB and AP scores will apply as college credit at various public and private institutions in Washington State. Students select the type of exam and the exam subject areas, enter the scores they earned or hope to earn, and select up to 5 colleges. A table will show how each college awards credit for each exam and provides a link to the school's website for further information.
Another great college planning tool can be found here. This website is designed to deliver tools based on the current grade level of the student. There is a ton of helpful info on this website - almost too much.
Alternatively, credit policies can be found at most university admissions websites by typing 'IB Credit Policy' into the search bar on the admissions page.
