A QUICK WEBSITE GUIDE TO NAVIANCE
TO BEGIN:
Open your internet browser and go to
On the home page, enter the code that was printed on your personal access card in the “New User” box and click “Register.”
Fill out the registration page including your e-mail address and a private password. REMEMBER to write down the password in a safe place. At the bottom of the page, check the box that you agree to the terms of use and click “Complete Registration.”
- (NOTE: When you log-in in the future, your user name is your e-mail address and your password is the one you established when registering. If you change your e-mail address at any point, remember to update it in TCCi.)
The “Welcome” page will appear when your registration is accepted.
TO COMPLETE A COLLEGE SEARCH:
On the left side of the “Welcome” page is a list of functions that are available on TCCi. Click on “college search” under the “About College” section of the menu on the left-hand side.
Select factors in any or all of the categories to help narrow down a list of colleges that match your interests. At the end of each page, you can either click “Show Matches” to generate a list OR click “Next” to continue to pick more factors.
(NOTE: You will notice that the number of schools that matches your criteria constantly appears near the top of the page as you move through the selections.)
If you end up with too many schools on your list and you need to narrow your list, simply select more factors. You should use the “Previous” button at the bottom of the page if you want to go back to earlier pages/factors. On the other hand, if you end up with too few schools, go back and deselect some of your factors. Again, use the “Previous” button.
Once you have completed your search, click “Show Matches.”
Scroll down toward the bottom of the new page. The list of schools that matches your criteria will appear.
At this point, you will see three pull-down menus. You now have the option to select criteria to compare three different factors for each school on your list.
TO RESEARCH COLLEGES ON YOUR LIST:
Simply click on a college name that appears on your generated list.
A new window will open and you will connect to a general information page for that school within Naviance. From this window, you can also research additional information such as admission criteria, extracurricular activities, etc., by using the pull-down menu located to the right of the red “Application History” box.
To return to your full list of schools and begin researching another school, simply close that window by clicking on the box in the upper left-hand corner.
To research another school, repeat the above process.
In order to save your list of colleges, you must manually save each one. To do this, click the “pick” link next to that school on your list of generated schools. That school will show up in the “Hand-Picked List.” Once you’ve selected all of the schools from your college search that you want to save, click the “Add to My Colleges” link directly under the box labeled “Hand-Picked List.”
(NOTE: To view this list at a later date, click “My Colleges” on the “About Me” menu on the left-hand side.)
WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED:
Don’t forget to click “Sign Out” in the menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
