Hey everyone, does anyone know if all colleges have CEEB codes, and where I could find this information? I'm starting my college applications and want to make sure I've got everything in order. Thanks in advance!
Yes, nearly all colleges and universities in the United States have CEEB (College Entrance Examination Board) codes. These codes are unique identification numbers assigned by the College Board to high schools, colleges, and universities. They help streamline and standardize the college application process and are used to identify schools when reporting standardized test scores, submitting high school transcripts, and for other purposes.
To find a college's CEEB code, you can visit the College Board's online search tool called the "Code Search," which is available on their website. In the tool, you can enter the name of the college or university, and it will provide you with the corresponding code for that school. Also, many colleges and universities list their CEEB codes on their websites or application information pages, so you can often find them there as well.
Keep in mind that you'll also need your high school's CEEB code when completing your college applications. You can find this information by asking your guidance counselor or looking it up in the same "Code Search" tool on the College Board's website. Best of luck with your college applications!
