By using the Adult Student Priorities Survey (ASPS), you’ll see what’s important to your adult students and how satisfied they are, along with national benchmark comparison data.

The ASPS is part of the RNL Satisfaction-Priorities Surveys family and is appropriate for surveying adult students 25 years of age and older in:

• Undergraduate programs
• Graduate programs
• Evening or weekend programs

The ASPS captures a variety of experiences at four-year institutions where the nontraditional student experience may be different than the on-campus traditional student experience, both inside and outside of the classroom, including:

• Instructional effectiveness
• Academic advising
• Registration effectiveness
• Campus climate
• Safety and security
• Recruitment and financial aid

Receive national benchmark comparisons

After using the ASPS, you will receive detailed reports about the responses for your population and see how your students’ satisfaction levels compare with comparable students nationally. Review the report samples and the list of institutions in the current three-year national norm groups.
