The National Student Survey (NSS) is used to inform 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 feedback on your experience of UCL and your programme of study.
NSS 2021
NSS 2021 is open, and you can complete it at www.thestudentsurvey.com until 30 April.
All of your responses and comments are anonymous, and NSS results help UCL continue to improve. The results are also released publically, so that prospective students can make informed decisions on what to study and where.
It typically takes around 10 minutes to complete the survey.
