Abstract: A key issue for admissions teams is to distinguish which students of those who apply are truly able and sufficiently committed to complete a degree. One signal of a student's ability to achieve college-level academic requirements is participation in high school acceleration programs such as Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate or Cambridge AICE. This research study examined college enrolment and graduation, two stakeholder concerns, for a cohort of high school students who earned a Cambridge AICE diploma in June 2011.
