Some colleges using STARS are testing a new feature called STARS EasyImport. This tool uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and AI (Artificial Intelligence) to help you import information from uploaded transcripts and/or grade reports automatically.
Some (but not all) colleges have chosen to enable this beta feature in their branded STARS instance.
If STARS EasyImport isn't available through a link provided by a participating college or university, you can still try it by logging in to the main STARS website: https://srar.selfreportedtranscript.com/generic.aspx
There is no advantage or disadvantage to your application whether you use STARS EasyImport or enter your information manually.
Important Notes:
- STARS EasyImport is currently in beta. While the feature performs well and is designed to save students time, students are still responsible for reviewing all imported data on the Review/Submit page for completeness and accuracy. As with any beta release, we will continue to make improvements based on user feedback and testing, with updates rolling out throughout the cycle.
- If EasyImport doesn’t work for your transcript or grade report, you can enter your courses manually.
