Student Recruitment, Retention and Degree Completion Survey

GENERAL INFORMATION

This survey is a valuable opportunity for all self-identified multicultural students in the College of Arts and Sciences to contribute to our understanding of how we can help students in our college thrive academically and reach their goal to complete a K-State degree. The survey will take only 5-10 minutes to complete, and responses are anonymous. The College of Arts and Sciences wants multicultural students to understand that their individual and collective voices matter to us and we will continue to take actions to better serve you.

Thank you, The SRRDC committee in the College of Arts&Sciences.
