The IB assesses student work as direct evidence of achievement against the
stated assessment objectives of Diploma Programme courses.
There are two assessment fees.
·
The student registration fee is paid once for each student
to take one or more examinations in a particular examination session. Diploma
category students who take anticipated subjects one year early do not pay a
second time.
·
The student subject fee is paid for each assessed subject taken by an
individual student. There is no fee for theory of knowledge or the extended
essay assessment by diploma category students.
·
Higher fees are charged where IB deadlines for student registration are
missed.
