Strengthen the Quality of Student Life and
Learning on Your Campus
Successful campuses continuously strive to improve the quality of the student experience. In order to do that, you need to know where to focus your efforts.
The RNL Satisfaction-Priorities Surveys (SPS) help you pinpoint those challenges and priorities. They allow you to look at your institution inside and outside of the classroom, so you can analyze a wide spectrum of issues that affect the student experience. You’ll see a clear picture of what you need to do now to improve student life, learning, and success.
Institutions regularly assess student satisfaction to:
- Strengthen student success initiatives
- Guide strategic action planning
- Meet accreditation requirements
- Identify areas of strength for institutional marketing
- Chart progress toward campus goals
