💡Expert's Take

TMU's IB Higher Level transfer table names credit for HL subjects from Biology to Visual Arts, but History is not among them, so no IB History HL equivalency is published. TMU says HL subjects completed with a grade of 5 or higher "will be considered," and calls these tables non-comprehensive guides of recently granted credit that are "subject to change." Because the list is not exhaustive, an IB History HL student can still request an individual transfer-credit assessment rather than treat the absence as final.

Official award line (IB History HL):
No standard equivalency published: History is not listed in TMU's IB Higher Level transfer-credit table. Because TMU states that HL subjects completed with a grade of 5 or higher "will be considered," an unlisted subject is assessed individually on application rather than automatically denied.
