Tell us about your student experience and you could be in with a chance of winning £300 cash or £100 of Dominos vouchers!
Our all-student surveys are a great opportunity to talk to us about your experience throughout the academic year. We act on your feedback to ensure that our priorities and campaigns are reflective of the student voice and we seek to make quick, impactful changes wherever possible.
Last term, 763 students completed our survey; we're seeking to increase our data so that all students feel truly represented. But we need your help.
We’d really appreciate it if you could take ten minutes to complete our survey and contribute your thoughts. As a thank you for your time, you will be entered into a prize draw with a top prize of £300 and runner-up prizes of £100 (x1) and £50 (x2). There's also £100 of Dominos vouchers up for grabs.
