The National Student Survey (NSS) informs future students about courses and universities across the UK. Undergraduates in their final year of study complete the survey.
The NSS is your chance to give anonymous feedback on your experience of UCL and your programme of study.
NSS 2022
The 2022 NSS is open until 30 April. Eligible students will be contacted directly by Ipsos Mori to complete the survey.
Eligible students will be able to take the survey via: thestudentsurvey.com
Results and comments from the National Student Survey are instrumental in driving improvements in the student experience across UCL. You can see examples of changes made in response to student feedback on the You Shaped UCL pages.
Completing the survey can also help your department earn extra funds to spend in collaboration with students through UCL's NSS response rate incentive scheme.
