NSS and PTES Response Rates
Thank you for all of your help in promoting the Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey. We currently have a 34% overall response rate, which is only 1% away from our overall target rate. To help us achieve our 35% goal, please keep promoting the survey to your students. You can find out more about ways to get involved here.
We're pleased to report that our final overall response rate for the National Student Survey at Warwick was 71.6%, exceeding our target of 65%. Thank you for your support in promoting the survey to our final year undergraduates. Results from the survey will be available during the summer - we will provide more information regarding results release in due course.
Thank you to everyone who has already provided us with some invaluable feedback via our survey. There's still time to let us know your thoughts. After evolving organically over the years, we know there is room for improvement in the content and navigation of our website, and we are looking for feedback from those who use the site as we work to make those improvements.
