titleIs the Key the same as the CEEB?

The Slate Knowledge Base will tell you that this key is the school's CEEB code; in fact, they even list it on the delivered Org search page as such:

If it is all numbers, it might well be, since CEEB codes can only be numbers. However, depending on the instance, records may have been added with alpha- or alphanumeric keys, which may be displayed here.

High schools are six digits; colleges are 4...BUT college codes may have leading zeros so it looks like 6 digits. 

But! The Slate lists includes many, many schools and organizations that don't interact with the College Board—think vocational and technical colleges who aren't looking for SATs; there are also many, many foreign schools, and the college board has only given some international schools codes. ​ Schools that do not have CEEB codes, but need to exist within Slate may end up having had weird codes applied to them somewhere along the line before they got to us.

In the event that the organization is created without a Key, the identity is the value that shows in the upper right of the record.

The fix for this is to create a new org form

If the new org form requires a CEEB, and one already exists with the code that is entered, the new org name will overwrite was already exists. to avoid that, we need some sort of conditional logic upon submission that checks for duplicates….but the suggested independent subquery is just not working. https://vet.admissions.tufts.edu/manage/form/form?id=5100857b-fe90-47e1-989e-0c812ca82b6f
