2018 National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report: Focusing on Satisfaction Levels for Demographic Subpopulations
Ruffalo Noel Levitz
The Ruffalo Noel Levitz (RNL) Satisfaction-Priorities Surveys are the national standard for benchmarking student satisfaction in higher education. Since 1994, more than 2,900 colleges and universities have used the surveys to evaluate students' concerns that influence student success, college completion, student recruitment, strategic planning, and re-accreditation. The surveys take a broad look at the student experience, both inside and outside of the classroom, and are compared with peer institution benchmarks for particular student groups. The surveys identify areas of strength, where students report high satisfaction and high importance, and areas of challenge, where students report low satisfaction and high importance. The 2018 report aggregates three years of data (2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18) and focuses on students' satisfaction levels, breaking the data down by demographic subpopulations, including race/ethnicity, gender, age, employment, type of learner (adult, online), and other key categories.
