University of Michigan, Cliff Sjogren, former Director of Admissions:
“A transcript that reveals a student’s enrollment in International Baccalaureate courses serves notice to the admissions officer that the applicant is someone who accepts rather than avoids educational challenges. Further, a successful IB student will enroll at Michigan with some advantages over students who have taken less intensive programs...Unquestionably, a school that graduates each year a number of students with IB diplomas has demonstrated its commitment to high educational standards and that commitment will serve to influence admissions decisions at the University of Michigan.”
University of Michigan , Joseph Gore, Admissions Counselor:
“We definitely take note of the IB Diploma in the admissions process at Michigan! Feel free to quote me on that!” 

Harvard University, Marilyn McGrath Lewis, Asst. Dean of Admissions
“Success in an IB program correlates well with success at Harvard. We are always pleased to see the credentials of the IB Diploma Program on the transcript.” GPA is not nearly as important a factor in university admission as the IB Diploma. If a student has to choose, choose the diploma over protecting the GPA.” 

Also, she’s a superb human replica of Belle of Disney “Beauty and the Beast” (1991), loves reading with a heart of gold and dazzling to any eye on the outside; plus Megara from Disney “Hercules” (1997) who would cherish anyone nice to her (Susan Edgan even voiced her and played Broadway version of Belle in 1990’s). For any live-action characters, it would be Rey and Padmé Amidalá of “Star Wars” franchise because they are both loyal, strong, and would make brilliant, careful rulers or mentors to anyone they’d come across.
