Students must register in their junior year with the Eligibility Center in order to begin the amateurism-certification process. Students must request that SAT/ACT scores be sent to the NCAA. Students in all grades who hope to play Division 1,2 or even 3 athletics in college should be familiar with the academic requirements and procedures of the NCAA that are available on this site. A great academic record, excellent SAT scores, and stellar athletic ability are the marks of an exemplary college athlete.

Naviance Student is a college/career software provider that partners with high schools to provide students with college planning and career assessment tools. Naviance Student enables the Guidance Counselors at CEC to "electronically" submit all transcripts, letters of recommendations, Common App school reports and teacher evaluations.
Access your Naviance account using your school email to search for career and college information relevant to you based on the feedback from your career interest profiles and assessments.
Apply to the colleges of your choice by going directly to the college website and click on "apply". Follow all of the steps and submit. (You may also use a Common Application form if the college you are applying to is a member).
The Common Application is an undergraduate college admission application that can be used for more than 700 member colleges. The Common App allows you to apply to many colleges with one application.
You must submit your scores "directly" to each college when you register for the test (4 for free) or later by contacting SAT or ACT.
You must request a recommendation through Naviance (NOT through Common App) and in-person to each teacher.
After you have completed your applications on the college website, "add" those colleges to "Colleges I am Applying to" in Naviance Student.
If you are using the Common Application form, you must "match" the application in Naviance for the required forms to be sent.
To send transcripts to each college, you must fill out a Transcript Request form in the Guidance Office, pay $3 per transcript in the Finance Office and request a transcript to be sent in Naviance. All THREE steps must be completed before a transcript will be sent electronically.
Please Note: Naviance accounts are mandatory! All accounts must be kept up-to-date with all colleges you are applying to listed for transcripts, letters of recommendation, school reports and counselor recommendations to be sent electronically. No transcripts will be mailed or emailed separately! Colleges do NOT have access to Naviance.
