College Board is a nonprofit organization[0] and thus is partially funded by the government to say nothing of any other grants they may have received. ACT Inc is the same way.

Instead of funding The One True Test, the US government partially funds every test competing to be the best college placement test.

How does being a nonprofit imply "partially funded by the government"?

Assuming you claim tax exemptions annually, are you partially funded by the government? :-P

To a much, much lesser degree, yes.
