For Students & Families: Create and Manage Views

Cristina Hernandez Updated by Cristina Hernandez

In Scoir, a View is how you save your table setup, including filters and columns, so you don’t have to redo it each time.

Scoir gives you a few built-in Views—like Overview, Following, Suggestions, and Applications—but you can also make your own.

Create a Saved View

Students and parents/guardians can create a custom View on the table layout of My Colleges.

  1. To get started, go to My Colleges.
    If you're a parent or guardian, go to your student's profile, then click Colleges & Applications > My Colleges.
  2. Once you're in My Colleges, click the View as Table button in the toolbar to switch to the table layout.
  3. Now make any changes you'd like:
    1. Apply filters.
    2. Add or reorder columns, or adjust their size.
  4. A blue dot next to the Views button means you have unsaved changes.
  5. Click the Views button, then:
    1. To undo your changes, click Revert to Last Save.
    2. To save your changes as a new View, click Save as New View.
  6. In the dialog box, give your View a name and choose whether you want it to be your default.. Then, click Add to save.

Edit a Saved View

Views provided by Scoir cannot be edited or deleted.

Once you've created a View, you can edit it's name, filters, columns, and sort order.

  1. Click the Views button and select the View you’d like to edit (if you’re not already viewing it).
  2. Make your updates:
    1. To edit a View's name: Click the Views button, then More Actions (⋮) next to the View > Rename. Make your changes in the inline text box, then click the checkmark to save.
    2. To edit a View's filters: Click Filters, make your changes, then click Apply Filters.
    3. To edit a View's columns: Click Columns, make your changes, then click Done.
    4. Once you've made changes to your filters or columns, click the Views button then click Save Changes to the right of the View.

Set the default View

To set the default view that loads when you navigate to the table layout of My Colleges:

  1. Click the Views button in My Colleges to see your list of Views.
  2. Find the View you want to set as your default and click (⋮) > Set as Default.

You’ll now see a ‘Default View’ label beneath it, and it’ll load automatically whenever you return to the page.

Delete a View

While Views provided by Scoir can't be deleted, you can remove any custom View:

  1. Click the Views button in My Colelges to see your list of Views.
  2. Find the View want to delete, click More Actions (⋮) > Delete.
  3. In the confirmation dialog, click Yes to delete the View.

Deleting a View does not delete any student or college records, just the saved layout.
