Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) announces its partnership with SchooLinks, a college and career readiness platform to prepare students for what comes after graduation. SchooLinks is a modern platform that offers a complete set of tools to help your student at every stage of their academic journey.
SchooLinks will replace Naviance. We understand that Naviance has been a trusted platform for our students, however, we believe that SchooLinks will provide more comprehensive and innovative tools to help students reach their college and career goals.
LCPS will transfer Scattergram and Scholarship information from Naviance to SchooLinks. To ensure all information stored on Naviance is captured, students are encouraged to transfer resumes or portfolio information – saved on this platform to a personal device prior to June 30. Please see this step-by-step guide to download information from Naviance.
SchooLinks will help students discover their interests and strengths, explore colleges and careers and create an individualized academic and career plan that best reflects their post-secondary goals. As a parent/guardian, you will have the opportunity to join your student in their career and college exploration process and have conversations with them about their future.
Using SchooLinks, students can:
Access career interest, strength and mindset surveys
Explore 2-year and 4-year colleges
Take virtual-reality college campus tours
Request transcripts and letters of recommendation
Track college applications
Increase financial literacy by comparing college costs, exploring expected financial aid, family contribution, scholarships and out-of-pocket expenses in the “Game of Life,” a SchooLinks financial future planning feature
