UPDATE!
Registration for BCSSE 2009 is now open. This will be the third year of BCSSE administration. In the past two years, approximately 140,000 entering first-year student have completed the BCSSE survey at one of 198 institutions across the United States and Canada. All of these institutions received the BCSSE Institutional Report, Student Advising Report, and a data file containing all the survey data. Most of these campuses also participated in NSSE the following spring and received the BCSSE-NSSE Combined Report which provides in-depth analysis of their students’ first-year experience.
