Getting Started
Learn how to use scorecard.
API Access
An API key is required to use the college scorecard API. You can apply for one for free here.
Starter Code
from scorecard.api import ScoreCard
sc = ScoreCard(api_key)
for college in sc.search('Howard'):
print(str(college))
This example will search for and return the name of every college with the name “Howard” in it and return it’s name and id.
If you know a specific colleges id, you can query that one specifically.
from scorecard.api import ScoreCard
sc = ScoreCard(api_key)
print(sc.get_by_id(131520))
