The National Student Survey (NSS) 2025 closed on 30 April. Thanks to the efforts of staff across the University we have achieved an excellent response rate of 76.5*%, exceeding our target of 74% (*pending confirmation from Ipsos). Your work to get us beyond the target is very much appreciated. This helps to ensure that we are hearing feedback from as many students as possible, including the voices of students that may otherwise be underrepresented, and increases the robustness of the information we get from the survey.
A sincere thanks to everyone who has helped us get to this response rate by engaging with our finalist undergraduate students and promoting the survey. This couldn’t have been achieved without you.
The results of the NSS are expected to be published by the Office for Students on 9 July.
