- Completing the IB Diploma can earn up to a full year (30 units) of first-year credit.
- UCalgary assesses the initial application on predicted IB grades; official final IB transcripts are required to finalize an offer.
- International tuition is charged per 3-unit course (CAD 3,078 in most faculties, 3,610 in Haskayne, 4,149 in Schulich), so a 10-course year costs ten times that.
