Presbyterian Board of Aid for Colleges and Academies organized in 1883 to direct "the interests of higher education as connected with the Presbyterian Church;" in 1904 its name was changed to The College Board; in 1915 it united with the Presbyterian Board of Education to form the General Board of Education, with a revised three-fold mission: to enlist and support ministerial candidates; to establish and support denominational schools and colleges; and, to provide religious services for and promote religious life among students at independent and state-supported colleges. The General Board of Education operated until 1948.
