College Board is an American private
nonprofit corporation that was formed in 1900 as the
College Entrance Examination Board (
CEEB) to expand access to higher education. While College Board is not an association of colleges, it runs a membership association of institutions, including over 6,000 schools, colleges, universities and other educational organizations. College Board develops and administers
standardized tests and curricula used by K-12 and
post-secondary education institutions to promote college-readiness and as part of the college admissions process. College Board is headquartered in
New York City.
David Coleman has been the president of College Board since October 2012. He replaced
Gaston Caperton, former
Governor of West Virginia, who had held this position since 1999.
