Naviance

Naviance Student is a web-based service designed especially for students and parents. By using Naviance, you have access to career interest inventories, college data, college research, scholarships, resume building and a variety of other services.

Naviance also lets us share information with you about upcoming meetings and events, local scholarship opportunities, and other resources for college and career information.

Every student has their own Naviance account, and it is automatically activated when they start at AWHS. Here are the steps for students to log in:

1. Go to your Tam District Portal

2. Click on the Naviance icon

Parents also have access to an account, but there are steps they need to take in order to register it. New parents should follow the steps below:

• Whereas student accounts are automatically registered when they start at AWHS, parents have to manually activate their accounts. 

  • Go to this page and click the link at the bottom that says "I'm new and need to register" 

  • Enter your individual registration code that you received in the introductory email from Lisa Neumaier

• Once on your account, click on the Colleges tab, then from the Research Colleges heading, pick College Visits. Click the Register button for each one you plan to attend.

• If you are unable to attend a specific session, see Lisa Neumaier in the College & Career Center as she can give you the handouts, as well as the representative's name and contact information.

•  Happy College Researching!

• The College & Career Specialist regularly receives information about local, regional, and national scholarships and keeps this information on Naviance. Although most of the scholarships are for seniors, there are some for other grade levels, so all students are encouraged to look at this list.
  To find it, you must be logged in to your Naviance account. Click on the Colleges tab, then from the Scholarship and Money heading, pick Scholarship Search.

• To see if you are eligible for each one, click on the Full Details button and scroll down to read the Description.  Read it in its entirety as it will tell you the criteria and how to apply if the application is not linked to the posting.
  Some are even available for college students, so you can continue to use Naviance after your high school graduation. Happy Scholarship Searching!
