Dean J,

The bill as of 03/05/10 (from [LIS > Bill Tracking > SB209 > 2010 session]( Bill Tracking > SB209 > 2010 session”>LIS > Bill Tracking > SB209 > 2010 session)) says the following:



B. Each public institution of higher education’s policies for course credit for standard and higher level International Baccalaureate courses shall be comparable to its policies for granting course credit for Advanced Placement courses.

Is this portion up to date? Or has there been a newer version?

This one mentions both standard and higher level IB courses, and that is the real importance of the bill.

Since this is effective starting July 1, 2010, will UVa offer me (this coming fall) some credit for some courses at UVa for the IB Standard Level classes I have taken?
