KUAN Student Survey
The purpose of this survey was to collect information about the student experience with academic advising at KU. The intended use of the information collected is to improve academic advising services available to students. This was done by creating student learning outcomes around advising, and then measuring how students perceived these learning outcomes were addressed through their advising experiences. The results provide an overview of what students are learning in advising and how they utilize the advising services across campus.
KUAN Survey Respondents
Who completed the survey? Survey was open to all active undergraduate students – we had 909 complete responses. When was the survey administered? April 2, 2018 to April 29, 2018. What does the survey capture? Information about the student experience with academic advising at KU. How does KUAN assessment information contribute to the KU Advising Network? Results can be used to initiate conversations around best practices for advising across campus and it provides a snapshot of the state of advising across campus.
