    For programs which have mathematics as a prerequisite requirement, we will accept the following:

    • HL Mathematics: analysis and approaches (Math AA)
    • SL Mathematics: analysis and approaches (Math AA), or
    • HL Mathematics: applications and interpretation (Math AI)
    • Note:ÌýSL Mathematics: applications and interpretation (Math AI) is not acceptable as a math prerequisite, but isÌýacceptable where math is not a requirement.
