SCOIR 

Beginning with the Class of 2024, current sophomores will gain access to SCOIR when their Grade 10 seminar begins in early April, 2022. In the winter of 2023 (when the current sophomores are juniors), they will begin their college search using the SCOIR college selection platform. Scoir also provides financial tools so that families can get a better sense of the cost of attendance at various colleges during the selection process. 

Fall 2023 Update: At this time, we are continuing to pilot SCOIR.  Students have access to their accounts and can research colleges using SCOIR.  They will also sign up for college representative visits through their account.  

If you need to sign up for a Scoir account, please use this link

Naviance (student.naviance.com/wellesley)

The senior class of 2024 will continue to utilize Naviance to request and send recommendations, transcripts, and school reports.

The computer program, NAVIANCE Student, enables our counseling department to offer a comprehensive website that students can use to help in making decisions about colleges and careers. Juniors and seniors can research colleges, compare GPA, SAT scores, and other statistics to actual historical data from WHS. All students can build a resume, take a career interest inventory, view the schedule of college rep visits, and much more.

We are pleased to make this resource available to all of our students and families as a complement to the series of individual appointments, college-related speakers, parent information presentations, and guidance seminars that we offer throughout the freshman, sophomore, junior and senior years.

All students receive a first time registration code in the fall of freshman year.  Once they successfully register for the first time, the user name is an email address and the password is one that the students choose themselves.
