Advocacy is central to the work of the College Board. Working with members, policymakers, and the education community, we promote programs, policies, and practices that increase college access and success for all students. In a world of growing complexity and competing demands, we advocate to ensure that education comes first.
To respond to members needs and concerns and help advance education in the United States, we work toward improvements in four critical areas:
Educational leaders collaborating to improve K–16 access and success
Data and reports related to trends in higher education pricing and student aid and recommendations for improving the federal student aid system.
Gateway to the National Office for School Counselor Advocacy (NOSCA) and efforts to support teachers and members
Diversity & Equity in Education
Resources for educators and admissions professionals to promote diversity and equity in our schools
