About Stellic
Stellic is on a mission to empower students to get the most value out of their college journey and prepare them for success in their careers. Many believe that degree progression is straightforward, but for most students, it’s a meandering and arduous process. As a result, graduation rates suffer - with less than 44% of students graduating within 6 years. Our degree progression platform finally solves one of the biggest pain points for college students and advisors: helping students plan their degrees, choose courses, and manage their academic journey.
