Administration Summary

This page provides an overview of your survey administration, including details about your population and sample, response rates, representativeness of your respondents, survey customization choices, and recruitment message schedule. This information can be useful for assessing data quality and planning future NSSE administrations.

Population and Respondents

The table at right reports your institution's population sizes, how many students were sampled (whether census-administered or randomly selected), and how many completed the survey.

Submitted population
Adjusted populationa
Survey sampleb
Total respondents
Full completionsc
Partial completion
a. Adjusted for ineligible students and those for whom survey requests were returned as undeliverable.
b. Targeted, experimental, and locally administered oversamples were not included.
c. Completed at least one demographic question after the core engagement items on the survey.

Response Rate and Sampling Errora

The table below summarizes response rates and sampling errors for your institution and comparison groups. For more information see NSSE’s Response Rate FAQ.

First-year Senior
Response Rate 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0%
Sampling Errorb +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0% +/-0.0%
a. Comparison group response rate and sampling error are computed at the student level (i.e., they are not institution averages).
b. Also called “margin of error,” sampling error is an estimate of the amount the true score on a given item could differ from the estimate based on a sample. For example, if the sampling error is +/- 5.0% and 40% of your students reply "Very often" to a particular item, then the true population value is most likely between 35% and 45%.

Representativeness

The table at right reports on variables submitted in your population file. Respondent and population percentages are listed side by side as a convenience to see how well the characteristics of your respondents reflect your first-year and senior populations.
