Given that many college students don’t even have SSNs (international students have no reason to get one until they want to work somewhere), this makes zero sense. What college does this?

It was standard 20-30 years ago. International students would be "assigned" some number that may or may not overlap with an actual SSN.

Shit was wack, yo.
