COMMON APP/NAVIANCE
We want to remind you that all students in Fulton County Schools now have access to Naviance, which can be accessed through your ClassLink account. As previously shared, schools will be using Naviance to process and submit transcripts, letters of recommendation, and other college application documents.
This year as you begin your senior year, we strongly encourage you to visit Naviance to research colleges, careers and scholarships! After doing your research and once you compile a list of colleges you are applying to, you will find that different colleges will require you to apply using different platforms. Below you will find a list of the most common platforms colleges use to have their students apply:
- Common Application
- Coalition
- GaFutures
- Common Black College Application
- Individual College Application
IMPORTANT CHANGES to Common Application and requesting letters of recommendation:
For Common Application, once you create your account, we ask that you NOT invite any teachers or counselors to write letters of recommendation through Common App until after you match your Common App account with your Naviance account. Requesting letters of recommendation in Common App before matching your Naviance account will create errors. Therefore, please hold off on requesting recommendations until after you match your accounts. To learn more about this process, you can watch the Common App Matching video. Once you match Common App to Naviance, you will then be able to request transcripts and teacher recommendations in Naviance Student. These videos will help you understand this process better (click on each title to watch):
To help guide you with the college application process, use the College Application Timeline and Checklist. We hope that you will find these resources helpful. If you have any questions about Naviance Student and the college application process, please contact your assigned counselor.

ATHLETICS CROSS COUNTRY
The Milton cross country teams captured all five races in their dual meet with Johns Creek as the Eagles hosted the Gladiators in their season opening meet that had been delayed by the COVID-19 restrictions. Varsity Girls The Lady Eagles used a strong push in the 2nd-half of the race to come from behind to just barely edge the Lady Gladiators. Milton (1st-27pts) won by just one point over Johns Creek (2nd-28 pts) to start off the dual meet of races on their home course. Individually, Johns Creek senior Agam Horowitz (1st-21:57) led from start-to-finish to claim the race win followed by senior teammate Allison Swift (2nd-22:31) but it was the running of Milton junior Megan Stechshulte (9th-24:37) who caught Johns Creek senior Alexis Vaka (10th-24:38) coming into the finish as both teams 5th runner battled for that last scoring spot which ended up determining the team title in favor of the Lady Eagles by just a single point! Milton's top-finisher was freshman Ella Grace Malcom (3rd-22:42) running a 22-second course personal best. Varsity Boys Milton (1st-15 pts) easily handled Johns Creek (2nd-51 pts) and recorded a perfect team score for only the 8th time in school history. But it was the front running by the Eagles top-two finishers that made their marks in the history books. Overall race winner, senior Hayden Marshall (1st-17:14) not only ran to a 10-second course personal best, but he improved on his 5th best performance by a Milton runner on the home course but he also moved to the 8th best performer on the course all-time by any high school runner that has competed on the extremely difficult Eagles home layout. Fellow senior and race runner-up Jack Petkash (2nd-17:33) made some history of his own becoming the 8th best Eagle performer on his home course with his 37-second course personal best. Senior Connor Brunson (3rd-18:24), junior Dylan Bowden (4th-18:43) & sophomore Cory Chambers (5th-19:09) made up the scoring for the Eagles. JV Girls Milton (1st-15 pts) landed their 9th team perfect score in school history as freshman Calista Cacciatore (1st-25:21) led from the start to get the overall win. Johns Creek trailed (2nd-50 pts). Sophomore Ella Rindt (2nd-25:56), seniors Paige Chambers (3rd-26:07) and Audrey Minton (4th-26:15) & junior Chelsea Pozatek (5th-26:36) were the Lady Eagles team scorers.
JV Boys Again, Milton (1st-15 pts) produced a perfect team score, the 10th in the school's history, to easily outpace Johns Creek (2nd-50 pts). In an extremely exciting race for the individual overall victory, Eagle junior Faaris Moiz (1st-20:54) pulled away from a group of nine Milton racers in the last 1000 meters to get the race win. The Eagles took the next nine finishing spots as well with junior Matt Cammack (2nd-21:07), senior Sean Runner (3rd-21:08), freshman Eric Rasmituth (4th-21:12) & sophomore Jack Rea (5th-21:27) leading the group of scorers. Open Boys Another strong team performance brought Milton (1st-23 pts) another victory over Johns Creek (2nd-36 pts) to conclude the meet. Johns Creek junior Hayden Parks (1st-22:17) got the overall race win as the effort by the Eagles was led by junior Luke Ortwein (2nd-22:37), senior Courtland Clark (3rd-22:58) & junior Axel Zivic (4th-23:49).
