Student Voice 2025

Student Voice, our ongoing survey project with Generation Lab, is designed to gauge students’ views on key issues and their suggestions as to how colleges and universities can best help them succeed. Our annual Student Voice survey of 5,000-plus two- and four-year students covers academic success issues, health and wellness, campus life, and how students are preparing for life after college. The main survey is supplemented by additional student flash polls on timely topics to help institutions plan for student success in 2025 and beyond.
