Common app, transcripts and more...

Seniors,
            Frustrated by the process of requesting information for college applications? Say no more… In the next few weeks Naviance will allow you to request transcripts and recommendation letters from Family Connections. Those applying with Common App will be able to link Common App with Naviance to seamlessly send supporting documentation to colleges. Once the website is enabled, you will be set up to track and send the supporting documents for applications to Common App colleges via Naviance eDocs. This means:
  • Students must request recommendations from Family Connection
  • Teachers must upload their letters of recommendation in Naviance eDocs
  • They cannot do these on the Common App site
Please wait to request transcripts and recommendation letters on Naviance until the School Counseling department announces that the website is officially enabled. Continue requesting transcripts and recommendations with the usual procedure. The School Counseling team will be coming into your classroom to clarify the new procedure starting September 12.
