SENIORS: Add your colleges to Naviance manually!

SENIORS: Add your colleges to Naviance manually!

Seniors will need to manually add colleges to their Naviance application list for any non-Common App colleges like MIT, Georgetown, etc, to which they might apply.  Those directions are below:

To manually add colleges to your Naviance “colleges I’m applying to” list:

-go to “colleges I’m applying to” in your Naviance account

- click on the big blue circle with a + icon on the right side of the screen -identify the college in "which college are you applying to" by scrolling down or typing the name and selecting 

-select the app type (Regular decision, early action, etc.)

-select the appropriate response under how “I’ll submit my application” choosing either “via Common App” or “Directly to the Institution”. It is critical that this matches how you will actually apply.

-select a response regarding whether or not you will submit SAT or ACT scores (choose undecided if you don’t know yet)

-select "Add Application"  

-repeat these steps as needed!

Here’s how to indicate the application plan  (EA/ED/RD/etc) for each college in your Naviance account:

  • go to "colleges I'm applying to
  • click on "EDIT" next to one of your early colleges
  • select the correct application plan for the college by using the drop down menu under “App Type”
  • make sure to also indicate the correct application method under “I’ll submit my application” choosing either “Via Common App”, or “Directly to the Institution”.  The latter choice would be for colleges like MIT, Georgetown, any colleges you are applying to via Coalition App, etc.
  • feel free to answer the SAT/ACT and level of interest prompts if you’d like to share that info with your assigned college counselor
  • click "save college application" to save
  • repeat for each college to which you are applying

We hope this helps!  Remember to contact your assigned college counselor if you have any questions or need anything throughout your senior year.  You can also just drop in to any open q & a period (1st, 7th, 9thor 10th, and often after school).
