Universities Accepting History HL
University of Victoria
Victoria, BC
Expert's Insight: Expert's Take History HL earns 3 units of transfer credit at UVic, but as a generic designation, not a named course. The official award is "100-level History course (3 units)": a block of first-year History credit that counts toward your degree total, but whose applicability to specific program requ...
York University
Toronto, ON
Expert's Insight: At 5 or better, York awards a named equivalency (AP/HIST 1010 6.00: War, Revolution and Society in the 20th Century) rather than only an unspecified block of junior credit. York explicitly calls its IB exemptions and credits table “a guide” and says transfer credit is “assessed bas...
University of Ottawa
Ottawa, ON
Expert's Insight: Expert’s Take History HL clears the entire first-year introductory history sequence — two named courses, not generic electives.

University of Calgary
Calgary, Alberta
Expert's Insight: Expert's Take History HL delivers a generous 6-unit block of credit, but it is generic, unassigned credit, and it will normally occupy the full 200-level History allowance within the major the moment it is applied. UCalgary awards 6 units of junior History for a score of 5 or higher on History HL. "...
Toronto Metropolitan University
Toronto, ON
Expert's Insight: TMU's IB Higher Level transfer table names credit for 19 HL subjects, from Biology to Visual Arts, but History is not among them, so no IB History HL award is published. TMU states only that HL subjects at a grade of 5 or higher "will be considered," and calls these tables non-comprehensive guides o...
Concordia University
Montreal, Quebec
Expert's Insight: At Concordia the value of this credit depends on your program. Concordia's IB Diploma statement admits applicants to the Extended Credit Program and awards History HL transfer credit toward it, but that credit reduces what you still have to complete only where Concordia assigns it to a requirement o...
