Which organization is described as an organization of more than 10,000 secondary school counselors, independent counselors, college admission and financial aid officers, enrollment managers and organizations who guide students through the secondary-to-higher-education transition process. This organization was founded in 1937?

• A. National Assessment of Educational Progress
• B. NACAC
• C. Master Reading Teacher
• D. Memorandum of Understanding

Answer: (B)

NACAC, the National Association for College Admission Counseling, fits this description. It brings together more than 10,000 professionals—including secondary school counselors, independent counselors, college admission and financial aid officers, enrollment managers, and related organizations—who work to guide students through the transition from secondary education to college. The group focuses on providing guidance, resources, and ethical standards, supporting access and affordability, and coordinating college admissions activities. It was founded in 1937.

The other items aren’t organizations serving this role: one is a national assessment program, another is a credential/title for reading teachers, and the last is a type of formal agreement, not an organization of counselors and admission professionals.
