What is the College Board and why does the student need to send financial information to them? Why doesn student send information directly to his/her school?
The College Board is a not-for-profit membership association whose mission is to connect students to college success and opportunity. IDOC is one of the many programs sponsored by the College Board. The college(s) or scholarship program(s) to which the student is applying have contracted with the College Board to collect and process the student’s financial information. Sending this information to the College Board as requested will help the student’s college(s) process his/her financial aid application more quickly and efficiently. Sending information directly to the student’s school may delay the application process.
