Naviance
To help track your applications we utilize Family Connection of Naviance Succeed. Naviance is the web-based system that we use to track and process your college applications. It is designed for students and their families to help navigate the college admissions process. This comprehensive website can be used to make decisions about courses, colleges and careers. You can use Naviance to research careers, colleges, and scholarships. It will allow you to:
Get involved in the planning and advising process – Build a résumé, complete on-line surveys, and manage timelines and deadlines for making decisions about college.
Research colleges – Do college searches and get more information about the programs and admissions criteria for specific schools.
Sign up for college visits – Find out which colleges are visiting Putnam Valley and sign up to attend those sessions.
Naviance Family Connection also lets us share with you about up-coming meetings and events, local scholarship opportunities, and other web resources for college and career information. In addition, the site includes a link that you can use to send us an e-mail message. To visit our school’s Naviance Family Connection site, go to: http://connection.naviance.com/putnam/
When you visit the site for the first time, please enter your personal registration code in the New User box and follow the on-screen directions to create your own account. Your guidance counselor can provide your registration code and help you get signed on the first time. Once you have your own account, you sign in using the user name and password you chose during the registration process. Choose a password that is easy for you to remember since the Guidance staff will not have access to your personal password.
We hope that you will find these resources helpful. Please ask your guidance counselor to help you navigate through Naviance!
