National Student Survey - The University of Nottingham

Make your mark

As a final year undergraduate the National Student Survey (NSS) is your chance to make your mark on your University.

Give your opinions on what you loved about your time here, as well as how you feel we could improve.

Here you can find out where to fill in the survey, what you will be asked and how your answers will be used to benefit you, your University and future students.

The 2012 survey will run from 30 January to 27 April 2012 at www.thestudentsurvey.com.
