Following ongoing conversations with schools and with a commitment to enhancing student support, the International Baccalaureate (IB) is pleased to announce a change in the release date for the Diploma Programme (DP) and Career-related Programme (CP) exam results for the November 2024 session.

 
The updated release date for the November 2024 session is now set for 9:00 pm GMT on 16 December 2024. This date adjustment also will be reflected in the November 2025 session and subsequent years.

With this earlier release date, the IB aims to assist students in meeting crucial university application deadlines in December, helping them secure spots at the universities of their choice.

This shift reflects the IB’s commitment to adapting its processes for the benefit of students worldwide. The IB has been working with schools to determine the feasibility of this change and is working with universities and admissions centres to communicate the reason for and impact of this change.

By releasing results in December rather than in January, the IB seeks to alleviate stress and uncertainty among students. A shorter waiting period for results can significantly ease the anxiety of anticipation, and the revised release date aims to provide students with a timely and reassuring outcome.
