General scholarships are awarded based on marks, and how high those marks are. When applying with IB, the schools will translate the 1-7 to a percent mark and then award scholarships based on that. Generally, an average of 6-7 is guaranteed a scholarship. (The points per subject are added up, but I no longer recall the details.) That being said, it's possible to check the Universities websites detailed information, so you'll know if they will or will not award a scholarship. Besides this just apply to a lot of different organizations that award scholarships if possible, although they tend to favor Canadian students over international. Have faith, Universities generally look upon IB students favorably. (for reference, for my year 5-7 = 92% - 100%)
