[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind though. Some of the data are self-reported by the students and, therefore, not very reliable[/quote]

At our school, all of the Naviance data is entered by the College Counseling Office. My son didn't even really know what his GPA was because the school doesn't calculate them to share with students, but they had calculated it to enter into Naviance. The College Counselor also has access to SAT Subject Test scores on his view of the Scattergrams - that doesn't show on the Student/Parent view, but it's another very useful piece of information for him as he counsels students about where to apply.[/quote]

But how do get the access to schools accepted/rejected/WL? Colleges don't report back to schools. [/quote]

The school counselors know where each student has applied because they requested transcripts to be sent. Naviance tracks the status of transcript requests, financial aid process, and requests for letters of recommendation from teachers and helps everyone keep track of deadlines for each college. The Wilson counselors received and updated the accept/reject/wait list info directly from some colleges, but not from all. Part of the end of year clearance for seniors was a visit to the college center to report all acceptances and financial aid offers.  [/quote]
