IB-elever uden IB Diploma, men med mindst 18 point (Diploma Programme (DP) Course Results), har adgang til videregående uddannelser i Danmark på lige vilkår med ansøgere med den 2-årige hf-eksamen uden overbygning. Det kræver, at alle 6 IB-fag (3 HL-fag og 3 SL- eller 4 HL-fag og 2 SL-fag) er bestået med mindst karakteren 3. Det betyder, at de har adgang til at søge optagelse på erhvervsakademi- og professionsbacheloruddannelser gennem kvote 1 og 2. Ansøgere med et Diploma Programme (DP) Course Results på mindst 18 point og mindst karakteren 3 i alle fag kan derudover få adgang til en universitetsbacheloruddannelse gennem kvote 1 og 2 ved enten at supplere med enkeltfag efter samme regler som hf’erne eller tage deres IB-eksamen om for at få et IB Diploma – Retake.
DP Course Results (formerly the IB Certificate) of at least 18 points, with at least grade 3 in all six subjects and at least three subjects at HL, are a qualifying examination in Denmark on the same terms as a two-year hf without overbygning: they give access to erhvervsakademi- and professionsbachelor programmes through quota 1 and quota 2, and to a university bachelor only after two successive raises of upper-secondary subject level, at least one to A level, taken as hf-enkeltfag. Course Results under 18 points, or containing any subject at grade 1 or 2, are not a qualifying examination at all. A full IB Diploma of 24 points or more gives access to every higher education programme in Denmark.
