It totally depends on your school because it is up to them to decide how they are going to collect, verify, and input data. Often, if the school has a strong college counseling department and uses this as one of its own research tools, it’ll be handled very professionally and accurately, with each CC putting in info in exactly the same way . At other schools, they may rely on students for data and not bother with those who don’t report and the info will be incomplete and/or inaccurate.

While it’s generally a small fraction overall, kids who are accepted off a waitlist over the summer are likely to not have those last minute changes recorded – in fact, the school may not even know about it. I think it’s a good idea if you meet with the GC/CC to ask how info is collected for Naviance at your school so you know what you are looking at.
