Overview
The College Student Experiences
Questionnaire (CSEQ) is a versatile tool that
assesses the quality of effort students expend
in using institutional resources and
opportunities provided for their learning and
development.
Quality of effort is a key dimension for
understanding student satisfaction, persistence,
and the effects of attending college. The more
students engage in educational activities, the
more they benefit in their learning and
development.

Common Uses
Institutions and their constituents want
more information about three issues: assessment,
accountability and accreditation. Assessment
emphasizes outcomes, or what students have
learned; accountability emphasizes efficiency,
or how resources are used; and accreditation
emphasizes institutional quality and
improvement.
Specifically, colleges and universities
use their CSEQ results to:
- Determine program effectiveness.
- Measure learning outcomes and impact
of campus environments (learning
communities, FIGS, etc.).
- Assess academic year initiatives
(first-year experience courses, senior
portfolio projects, etc.).
- Merge with and complement
institution-wide data for a richer
understanding of student development issues.
- Compile accreditation data.
- Examine efforts of academic affairs
and student affairs divisions.
- Assess division-wide programming and
student learning.
- Assess student involvement in a
variety of campus initiatives.
In addition to providing valuable
information for the institution, students
completing the CSEQ benefit from reflection and
self-evaluation. Many students say completing
the questionnaire prompts them to recall the
range of activities in which they participated
during the year and the progress they made
toward important goals.
