If you find that e-mail messages being sent from Naviance are being blocked by your school’s e-mail system, you will need to contact your school’s e-mail system administrator to have them allow mail from Naviance servers to be delivered on your network. The process of allowing our servers to send e-mails to recipients is known as whitelisting. The following email domains should also be an allowed sender: email.naviance.com and sender.email.naviance.com *Please note that this new process does not apply to any single sign-on users; i.e., Clever and Google SSO – for those users, your login process does not yet change.*
