"but if it were the UC I don’t know why it wouldn’t have SAT scores for private schools too"
According to a document I received from UCOP, in January 2021, UC paid $5400 to license data only for public school students:
Data on California public school students, including personal identifying information without SSN:
a. 2020 cohort SAT® Suite of Assessment Data and full SAT Questionnaire, most recent SAT test scores
b. 2020 Advanced Placement Program® student level administration data as one record per student with testing history
c. 2020 cohort SAT® Subjects Examination Data (collectively, the “Data”).
The 'data recipient' was "Tongshan Chang or Institutional Research designee will receive
the data on behalf of the Licensee."
