About NRCCUA
NRCCUA has been building educational bridges between college-bound high
school students, high school counselors and college admissions officers
for more than over 37 years. Through our annual surveys, we gather
information on student attitudes and educational plans from nearly 5.5
million students in over 20,000 public and private high schools
nationally. The survey is voluntary and students participate at no cost.
This valuable research is published and distributed to more than 1,500
member colleges and universities so they can better identify high school
students who meet their institutions’ admission profiles. In addition to
hearing from colleges and universities, students may also hear from
non-profit and for-profit organizations offering educational
opportunities such as college admissions services, financial aid, career
information, extracurricular enrichment and recognition programs. Visit
