UptoSkills Student Dashboard: The Complete Guide (2026)
Every section of the student dashboard explained — Leagues, jobs, AI practice, Aura rewards, certificates, referrals and settings.
Short answer: The student dashboard is where everything you do on UptoSkills lives — the courses you are taking, the jobs you applied to, your AI interview practice, your certificates, and the rewards you have earned along the way.
The top bar
Four sections that take you out of the dashboard and into the wider platform:
| Menu | What it opens |
|---|---|
| Learn & Earn | All Leagues, the leaderboard, the community |
| Jobs | Job and internship listings, job fairs |
| Compete | Hackathons, competitions and events |
| Discover | Blogs, guides, support |
Your coin balance sits up here too, next to the theme toggle.
The sidebar, section by section
| Section | What it is for |
|---|---|
| My Competitions | Hackathons you registered for, with their phase timelines |
| My Jobs | Every job you applied to and its status |
| My Internships | The same, for internships |
| AI Practice Hub | AI mock interviews and AI assessments |
| My Leagues | Your courses and learning path |
| My Events | Community events you host or attend |
| Aura Rewards | Quests and the cosmetics shop |
| Academics | Your college's notices and calendar |
| My Certificate | Every certificate you have earned |
| Awards | Award programmes open to enter |
| Subscription | Your plan and AI credits |
| Refer & Earn | Your referral code and earnings |
💡 Academics only appears with content if your college is on UptoSkills and a faculty member added you. If it is empty, your college has not set it up.
Two currencies, and they are not the same
| Coins | Aura | |
|---|---|---|
| Earned by | Finishing lessons, assessments and Leagues; referrals | Completing Aura quests |
| Spent on | Up to 10% off a certificate or AI credits | Profile cosmetics and physical goodies |
| Can you buy them? | Not as a student | No |
Coins save you real money. Aura is for showing off. Neither can be bought with cash from a student account.
The first five things to do on a new account
- Get your profile to 100% — it is also a one-time Aura quest, and recruiters see it
- Start one League — free, and it is where XP, coins and certificates come from
- Use your free AI mock interview — everyone gets one
- Turn on your public profile — another quest, and it is how employers find you
- Grab your referral code — 50 coins per friend who joins
Does the student dashboard cost anything?
No. Leagues, job and internship applications, competitions, Aura, streaks, badges and your first AI interview and assessment are all free. Two things are optional and paid: a League certificate, and the Pro plan.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes, on Android. Progress syncs both ways, and a few Aura quests — like the daily login streak — are app-exclusive.
Why is my sidebar showing a number badge?
My Jobs and My Internships show unread updates — usually an employer moving your application to a new stage. Open the section to clear it.
Where do I change my password or check my devices?
Settings, reachable from your profile menu. See subscription, billing and settings.
