BULK IMPORT
Enroll your whole school in minutes, not days
Upload a CSV of your student roster and NavEd walks you through mapping your columns to the right fields — no manual data entry required.
Start with the spreadsheet you already have. Upload any CSV — NavEd's import wizard reads your column headers and lets you match each one to the right student field with a simple dropdown. A live preview shows exactly how each row will land before you commit.
Row-by-row validation catches missing names, unrecognized grade levels, or duplicate entries before anything is saved. Fix flagged rows right in the wizard, then import your entire roster in a single click — what used to take days of manual entry takes a few minutes.
- Any CSV format accepted — Works with whatever column names and order your spreadsheet already uses — no reformatting required.
- Visual field mapping — A drag-and-match interface connects your CSV columns to NavEd fields so nothing gets imported into the wrong place.
- Row-level error flagging — Problem rows are highlighted with a plain-language explanation so you can fix them before the import runs.
- Hundreds of students at once — Import a full school roster in minutes — the same workflow scales from 10 students to several hundred.
