              Hi Elena! Cornell does accept AP and IB credit but the scores that will receive credit depends on what college you are looking at. For example, this is the College of Arts and Science's credit policy: http://as.cornell.edu/information/orientation/credit.cfm If you go to cornell.edu and search the college and IB Credit, it should come up. Let me know if you have trouble!
