Is there a way to complete a quest with console commands?
I'm asking because he is glitched and wont do anything. Meaning any quest with him in it I can't complete. Any ideas?

Yes.

setstage <quest ID> <stage #>

Find quest IDs and stage numbers here:
www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Quests

Typically, stage 200 is the end of a quest; so you'd type 'setstage <quest ID> 200' to mark a quest completed.

Also, if you find a quest on UESP that doesn't have all the stages listed, you can use this command:
sqs <quest ID>
This will "show quest stages" -- it lists each numbered stage of the quest & whether that stage is completed (1) or not (0).

If you have a bugged quest, it can also be useful to use:
resetquest <questID>
This will set all stages of that quest to 0. You can then use the setstage command to mark the stages complete as needed in order to fix the bug. (Example -- if you pick up an item, it may mark a later stage of a 'fetch' quest completed. This may then cause the quest giver to never actually ask for the item. You can use resetquest, then talk to the quest giver to actually have him ask for the item, then use setstage to mark the retrieval part finished, then talk to the quest giver to turn in the item.)

Yes there is a command to finish Quests, just google and you will find easy tutorials
But if your concerned with your acheivements this could mess them up and not receive them.

Feels good to belittle people isn't it? before I ask the community I already did my research and to no good, so I tried asking people who might encounter the same in-game bug and hoping they solved it.

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Magic_Student
stating in the
Bugs section:

Loading through doors (into your house for example) will result in the Student disappearing from the city when you go back outside. A quest marker will be present, but is not visible on the map, leaving no way to finish or remove the quest from the log.

Wrong forum and a thread that is unconnected to your problem.
Battle of the Champions is from Creation Club, and is therefore SE
