2008 STUDENT SURVEYS: web-exclusive charts
Students tell what they really think about their university, from whether they got the classes they wanted to the quality of their profs.
You will find results from the web-exclusive charts here, from the Canadian Undergraduate Survey Consortium(CUSC). The CUSC survey, which was commissioned by the universities, asks more than 100 questions about specific aspects of the undergraduate experience—inside the classroom and beyond—designed to provide universities with data to help them assess programs and services. Launched in 1994, CUSC is coordinated through the University of Manitoba’s department of housing and student life. In 2007, 32 universities took part, including two institutions—UBC and the University of New Brunswick—that surveyed multiple campuses. Surveys were sent to a random sample of approximately 1,000 first-year undergrads at each university. Institutions with fewer than 1,000 first-years surveyed the entire cohort. More than 12,700 students responded.
In each chart, universities are listed in descending order. Order was determined by the percentage of students who chose the highest level of satisfaction of agreement when responding, for example, “excellent.”
