A Door to an International Career: A Dual Diploma in High School
A dual diploma in high school brings the IB and national diplomas together. This pairing opens a door to distinguished universities worldwide for students.
Earning a dual diploma in high school increases the chance of studying at distinguished universities worldwide and opens the doors to an international career. When the IB diploma, which builds international awareness, superior language skills and 21st-century skills, comes together with the diploma of the Ministry of National Education, which supports a bond to one's cultural roots, the student takes one more step towards becoming a "globally minded citizen rooted in their values".
How Is a Dual Diploma Earned?
Students who graduate from IB World Schools gain the chance to earn a dual diploma. A student who graduates from the International Baccalaureate Organization's IB Diploma Program, which covers grades 11 and 12 of high school, obtains, alongside the diploma of the Ministry of National Education, the IB diploma recognised by more than 2,000 universities across the world. Gökkuşağı Koleji is an authorised IB World School.
