Test student view
Create a sandbox environment to explore Stellic as a student without affecting real data.
Note: If you're both an admin and a student at your institution, you won't see this option. Instead, you can toggle between your admin view and your own student record.
Create a test student view
Click your picture or initials in the top-right corner.
Select Switch to Test Student View.
Click Create a new test account.
Search for and select a student.
Click Create, then OK.
The page refreshes into a cloned sandbox. The student's data is imported, but any changes you make won't affect their actual record.
Return to admin view
Click your initials or picture in the top-right corner and select Switch to Admin Account.
Use an existing test view
After creating a test student view, the next time you switch you'll see two options:
Use your existing test student view
Create a new test student view
Creating a new view replaces your previous one. You can only have one test student view at a time.
What to know
Anonymized data — The clone strips identifying information (name, email, advisors). You'll see your own name in place of the student's.
Safe sandbox — When you see the grey student menu (Home, Track Progress, Plan Your Path), you're in the sandbox. Plan courses, message, and interact freely—nothing affects real data or sends real notifications.
Approximation, not impersonation — This mirrors the student experience but doesn't bring in all student-specific settings.
Private to you — Your test student view isn't visible to other users.
Many teams use test student view for demos and training since the data is anonymized.
