It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
The International School of Tianjin (IST) holds three international accreditations that cover its programs and operations: the Council of International Schools (CIS), the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), and the International Baccalaureate (IB). IST is specifically authorized by IB to offer all three IB programs (PYP, MYP, DP) and has been authorized since May 2002. IST is also described as having dual international school accreditation through WASC and CIS, reflecting recognition by both agencies. IST's accreditation is framed as fully endorsed by these three global bodies, confirming adherence to international standards.
IB's Certification to IST for 2023 confirms IST was recognized by the IB as a top global IB school for 2023, with IST listed as Top 10 IB School in China and Top 100 Global IB School. This designation reflects the school's performance within IB programs and its standing among IB World Schools.
IST is a non-profit, parent-governed international day school offering IB programmes. It operates on a large campus in Tianjin's southeastern Jinnan District, with two main purpose-built buildings (Qin and Han) and extensive facilities.
