<p>I've been considering whether to get the full diploma or not, that list of schools makes the decision easier. What's the point when it's not widely recognized?</p>
<p>The limited availability of an IB scholarship is not necessarily a reason to rule out the full diploma. You can still get credit at many schools for specific courses but some schools will also give college credit for the diploma itself (one school we looked at was the Univ of MN and I believe they gave some sort of credit for the diploma). The main thing is that colleges look at how challenging your classload is and full diploma candidates would therefore have the kind of rigorness colleges are looking for in that respect, on par with all AP or Honors courses, depending on what your school offers. IB also requires community service hours, participation in athletics, and creativity hours (ECs that colleges will look at, but which should all be easy to accomplish for top students whether taking IB or not). However, I'd say there's more reasons to take a full IB courseload than to actually get the diploma but it really depends on what your school offers. My son's school actually offered more IB than AP courses so since he was taking a full IB load anyway, he decided to go for the diploma too, even though it really won't count for anything as far as colleges go (by the time you get the diploma you are already accepted). Interestingly, one of his favorite classes was TOK which he never would have taken if he hadn't been a full diploma candidate.</p>
