Degree Planning for Advisors

The University has introduced a new product called Stellic, accessed directly from the Student Information System (SIS). Stellic offers a more modern student and advisor experience and enhances the ability to view and manage students' paths to graduation via requirements.

Stellic is a cloud-based user-centric dynamic planning tool that helps undergraduate students Organize, Track, and Personalize their degree path.

  • Stellic replaces the Academic Requirement Report, What-if Reports, My Planner, and Scheduler Planner tools in the Student Information System (SIS) for undergraduate students.
  • Stellic offers improved advising tools, helping students more easily plan their semester schedules and visualize their degree requirements.

The project team consists of resources from UTech, the Undergraduate Advising Support (UAS) Office, and the Office of the University Registrar.

Features

Benefits of Stellic as a Degree Planning Tool

 

Stellic expands functionality for students.

  • Easily explore programs. Students can view alternate scenarios for planning purposes by adding programs to their profiles to see how existing and planned coursework will apply toward those requirements.
  • Create a plan for each semester towards graduation. Stellic has a user friendly interface with a clean layout, mobile friendly views, and drag and drop functionality.
  • Generate a schedule that fits students’ preferences. Students can take their planned courses and have Stellic automatically generate a schedule based on the sections offered in SIS.

 

Stellic fosters transparency and collaboration with advisors.

  • A shared view helps advisors and students stay on the same page. Any changes students make to their planner or scheduler in Stellic, the advisor can see and make any notes based on their knowledge of course offerings, workload, or recommendations.

 

Stellic provides expanded analytics for advisors and administrators.

  • Advisors and administrators can create reports generated from the degree planning tools to easily identify students who meet certain criteria (e.g. undeclared students, seniors with less than 5 requirements remaining, students with less than 2.0 GPA, etc).

To the Case Western Reserve University Community:

CWRU will soon provide an enhancement to the Student Information System (SIS) that will help undergraduate students and their advisors plan their pathways toward degree completion. This tool, called Stellic, is also expected to provide better support for curricular planning at the department and school levels.

Stellic is a cloud-based product that will integrate into the Student Information System (SIS) and replace the existing Academic Requirement Reports, What-if Reports, My Planner, and Scheduler Planner tools currently in SIS.

As co-executive sponsors for this project, we are excited to share some of the much-anticipated improved features, including:

  • Easy access to tools to assist students with degree planning

  • Comprehensive and seamless planning across multiple terms encompassing required and elective courses

  • Ability to use drag-and-drop functionality for open time slots to locate courses meeting degree requirements or other student preferences

  • Streamlined interface for students and advisors to collaborate and view completed, planned, and unplanned requirements through a shared view

Stellic is scheduled to launch in early 2024. We look forward to sharing more information as we get closer to going live.

Sincere thanks from the project Executive Co-Sponsors,

Don Feke, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Academic & Faculty Affairs
Miro Humer, Vice President & CIO, [U]Tech
Jeff Wolcowitz, Senior Advisor to the Provost for Learning
