Why an IB diploma?

IB is an academic program that is designed to educate 16 to 19-year-olds to enter the best universities🏫 and have a successful life. The program was designed in 1960 in Switzerland, and the goal was to provide a chance for students all around the world to earn a credible and international diploma.
