Exit surveys make a difference
|
Fall commencement is here, and we need your help to raise awareness of the importance of the University exit survey for graduating students.
Why it matters: The exit surveys provide data on the overall student satisfaction with the services and opportunities provided by UTA, its colleges, and its programs, and how those can be improved.
Going deeper: The results give us a better understanding of students' sense of preparedness and their plans for employment and education after graduation. They also show how well we are achieving those outcomes as an institution. This data has informed program accreditation, policies, and initiatives.
Graduating students will receive an invitation from gradteam@uta.edu with the link to the survey. The link will also be available in Canvas.
