About the company
The College Entrance Examination Board, operating as The College Board, is a non-profit educational assessment organization headquartered in Reston, Virginia. The organization specializes in developing, administering, and providing standardized educational testing and assessment services to federal agencies, particularly the Department of Defense and its components. The College Board is widely recognized for administering the SAT, PSAT, Advanced Placement (AP) exams, and the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), which enable students, service members, military families, and Department of Defense civilians to evaluate college readiness and earn college credits through standardized testing.
Through federal contract awards, The College Board has consistently provided educational assessment and testing services to multiple Department of Defense agencies and military components. The organization has received numerous delivery order contracts under its primary Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Human Resources Activity for College Level Examination Program (CLEP) services, with individual task orders ranging from approximately $1,000 to $1.9 million. Specific delivery orders have supported CLEP exam administration and test preparation for all Department of Defense personnel, military spouses through the Military Spouse Career Advancement Accounts (MYCAA) program, U.S. Coast Guard personnel, and Air Force civilians. Additionally, The College Board has received multiple delivery order contracts from the Department of Defense Education Activity valued between $9,600 and $1.38 million for providing nationally recognized assessments for postsecondary preparation, including SAT and Advanced Placement exam administration to military-connected students. The organization has also been awarded purchase order contracts by the U.S. Air Force Academy, including a $52,000 contract for access to approximately 100,000 student records containing SAT test scores, grade-point averages, demographics, and parent contact information to support recruitment and admissions efforts, as well as contracts with the Bureau of Naval Personnel for student search services and name search subscriptions. All contract awards have been direct awards to The College Board as the prime contractor with no set-aside designations applied.
The College Board has received federal grant awards through the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs for professional development and educational advancement initiatives. These project grants, awarded in October 2021, September 2023, and October 2024, were designed to achieve professional development outcomes for high school counselors from the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Education and to enable UAE students to pursue studies at top-tier United States universities. The grants supported training programs delivered in partnership with New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD), targeting the training of 30 UAE Ministry of Education counselors to provide college and career guidance services. The award dates and completion schedules indicate ongoing modifications and deobligations of unspent funds through June 2025, demonstrating iterative funding adjustments over the grant performance period.
The College Board holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Human Resources Activity valued at $38,491,800, awarded on September 15, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2027.
