NSSE survey reconfirms our student satisfaction

On November 10, the Winona undergraduate College was cited by USA Today for our scores in the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). Saint Mary’s was recognized for a high level of student-faculty interaction, particularly outside the classroom, as reported by our first-year and senior students. The article is titled “Faculty play role outside class as mentors, models.”

The NSSE survey is a measure of the student perception of and satisfaction with their college experience. In our most recent survey, Saint Mary’s compares well against other schools in our Carnegie classification (Doctoral/Research Universities), as well as with regional peers, a consortium of Catholic institutions, and the larger national sample. The NSSE results illustrate our culture of engaged, active and supportive faculty, which contributes to a good learning environment for students.
