Viking Score: How to use it for success

The Viking Score is Augustana College's career-readiness program to support students through college and post-graduate life by tracking experiences and awarding points to earn incentives along the way.

The Viking Score motivates students to take small steps ensuring they are on the right path to getting to where they want to be.

Viking Score Activities are designed to move students smoothly, at their own pace, through the process of career development and vocation.

Viking Score points

Students can earn Viking Score points throughout each academic year to receive rewards. Points are tallied for activities completed prior to April 30 each year. Students will be informed via email of their points, earned incentives, and how to pick them up.

Activities are categorized by exploration, preparation, experience and career readiness.

100 Viking Score Points

Students earn incentives such as decals, padfolios and T-shirts as they accumulate points. Earn a Viking Score of 100 points or more by April 30 of your senior year and you will receive a Viking Score Graduation Cord indicating a Perfect Viking Score plus an invitation to the Viking Score Banquet.

This end-of-the year event celebrates students. Each student may invite one guest who has been supportive of their career success throughout their college career.

Points are tallied for activities completed prior to April 30 each year. Students will be informed via email of their points, earned incentives, and how to pick them up.
