Hello! I'm working on college applications and I keep seeing this thing called a 'CEEB code' that I need for my college choices. What exactly is it and how do I find the CEEB code for the colleges I'm applying to?
A CEEB code is a unique identification number assigned to high schools, colleges, and universities by the College Board. This code is used in various aspects of the college application process, such as during standardized testing score submission. Using CEEB codes helps ensure that your test scores and other application materials are correctly sent to the institutions you're applying to.
To find the CEEB codes for the colleges you're applying to, you can do the following:
1. Visit the College Board's Code Search tool at https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/k-12-school-code-search
2. In the search form, enter the name of the college and its location (city and state). Press "Search."
3. In the search results, find the right college and its corresponding CEEB code.
Alternatively, you can also find a college's CEEB code on its website, usually in the Admissions or Registrar section. If you have trouble finding the code on the website, you can contact the institution's admissions office, and they should provide you with the information.
Remember to double-check the CEEB code you've found to ensure it corresponds to the correct institution and avoid any potential issues with your application submission.
