What is NSSE?
NSSE (pronounced “nessie”) stands for the National Survey of Student Engagement. NSSE annually collects information at hundreds of four-year colleges and universities about first-year and senior students' participation in programs and activities. The results provide an estimate of how undergraduates spend their time and what they gain from attending college.

Is there an incentive to participate?
In appreciation for participating, students who complete the survey by April 11th will be entered into a drawing to win $10 in CatCa$h. Half (50%) of participants will win a prize. In addition, we will also enter completing students in a random drawing for 1 of 3 $100 Amazon gift cards, or 1 of 2 $250 Amazon gift cards. Your chances of winning depend on how many complete the survey; the last time we administered this survey about 523 students responded.
How long does it take to complete NSSE?
The survey takes about 10-15 minutes to complete.
What happens after my survey response is submitted?
NMU will use its NSSE data to identify aspects of the undergraduate experience inside and outside the classroom that can be improved through changes in policies and practices more consistent with good practices in undergraduate education.
