Converting the STAR “Student ID” field to the UIC
Converting the STAR “Student ID” field to the UIC will make it possible to upload STAR Math and STAR Reading Assessment data directly into Data Director. This process only needs to be completed once per school/district. After this process has been completed the UIC should be placed in the STAR “Student ID” field when new students are added to the STAR assessment program.
