Campus Living surveys
Your voice matters to us
Campus Living strategically utilizes surveys to help students succeed and to continuously improve the on-campus living experience. We provide opportunities for you to report your experience and give feedback at three points during the 2024–25 academic year. Past survey results have been used to improve facilities, community events, staff training, and more.
Make sure you complete each survey to make your voice heard and enter yourself into the drawings for incentives! Follow us on Instagram to see updates about our survey and winners!
