The European Baccalaureate (or EB) is awarded to students who pass the final year exam at a European School. These are mainly attended by students whose parents work for a European institution. There are currently 14 European Schools. (This diploma should not be confused with other types of educational qualifications which also bear the name Baccalaureate. In the German language the European Baccalaureate is called the Europäisches Abitur, not to be confused with the German Abitur.)

Famous quotes containing the word european:
“Americans want action for their money. They are fascinated by its self-reproducing qualities if it’s put to work.... Gold-hoarding goes against the American grain; it fits in better with European pessimism than with America’s traditional optimism.”
—Paula Nelson (b. 1945)
