The National Student Survey 2024聽is now open.
The NSS is a nationally recognised annual survey for final year undergraduate students at all聽UK universities.聽The survey is administered by Ipsos Mori, an independent聽research agency on behalf of the UK Higher Education Funding and Regulatory Bodies, so responses remain anonymous to BU at all times.
Why should I take part?
Taking part in the NSS is a great opportunity to reflect on your whole BU experience and how much the experiences you have had have helped you to learn and develop.聽
We use the data to continually improve our courses or services and to make sure we keep doing the things which are working well. The NSS results are also made publicly available to help prospective students, their families and advisors make informed decisions about where and what to study.聽
Your answers will remain confidential and they cannot be identified to you. All BU will ever know is how many students responded to the survey, along with a breakdown of your collective responses. You'll need to enter your BU student ID to start the survey so that Ipsos Mori聽know you're eligible.
As the deadline date for the NSS approaches, it's likely that Ipsos Mori聽will send you a reminder email, text or even call you if you haven't yet taken part in the survey.

How can I take part?
If you are eligible for the survey, Ipsos Mori will contact you by email from 7聽February 2024聽to invite you to take part in the survey online. However, you can fill out the NSS online or via a mobile device at at any time until 30 April 2024.
Further information about the survey is available on the NSS website:聽. If聽you have any questions, our聽FAQs below聽should help - alternatively, you can contact聽[email protected]聽and we'll聽reply as soon as we can.
Please note that not all students are eligible;聽if you started your degree at another university and transferred to BU for your final year, have repeated your final year, or you are on a top-up degree and completed the NSS as part of your foundation course, you鈥檙e unlikely to be asked to take part in the NSS this year.
