The impact of a BIS Houston education lasts far beyond graduation.
From Year 5 to Imperial College London
The impact of a BIS Houston education lasts far beyond graduation. Just ask Harish, a Class of 2023 graduate who joined the school in Year 5 and completed the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme.
Now two years into his medical studies at the University of Edinburgh, Harish is preparing to spend the next academic year at Imperial College London - one of the world’s leading science and technology universities.
“I started at BIS Houston in Year 5 and went on to complete the IB, which has prepared me for the many challenges ahead,” he says. “I have now completed two years at the University of Edinburgh and will be spending the next year at Imperial, working towards my future career as a doctor.”
IB Results That Open Doors
Harish’s journey reflects the strength of BIS Houston’s IB programme and the quality of its teaching. Year after year, BIS Houston students achieve IB results that exceed global averages and open doors to the world’s top universities.
In 2025, students achieved an average IB score of 34 points, significantly above the global average of 30.58. The school recorded a 92% pass rate in the Diploma Programme and a 100% pass rate in the Career-related Programme. Nearly half of all grades were 6 or 7, and 24% of students scored above 40 points - placing them in the top 4% of IB students worldwide. Five students earned bilingual diplomas, and the Class of 2025 received over $6.3 million USD in scholarship offers.
These results are not an exception - they are part of a consistent pattern of academic excellence at BIS Houston.
Expert Guidance from Day One
BIS Houston’s university counselling team plays a key role in helping students like Harish navigate the complex world of global admissions. From one-to-one guidance to tailored application strategies, counsellors work closely with students and families to ensure every graduate finds their university of choice.
In 2025, BIS Houston students received offers from top universities including Columbia, UCL, McGill, Rice, UT Austin and the University of Toronto. One in two students received offers from Top 100 global universities, and one in three were accepted to Top 50 U.S. institutions. Students gained admission to elite groups such as the Ivy League and the Russell Group, shaping their futures across the globe.
More Than Just Academics
For Harish, the value of a BIS Houston education went far beyond exam results.
“My nine years at BIS Houston not only challenged me academically, but helped me grow into a well-rounded person,” he says. “Academic growth, personal growth, and global opportunities - this is what it means to create your future at BIS Houston.”
From the support of expert teachers to the school’s global outlook and inclusive global community, Harish’s experience shows how BIS Houston prepares students for life, not just university.
