Every year, thousands of students complete the National Student Survey (NSS) and give their views on what they liked about their University and course. It also gives students a chance to express opinion on what they feel could be improved to better their student experiences.
Student feedback is compiled together each year and the results are used as a basis for league tables. As we all know, league tables are important, because often employers will look at these to gain a greater understanding about your educational background. I’ve had a fantastic experience in my 4 years at the University of Kent, and the NSS is the perfect platform to express that.
There are also a number of other platforms in which you can give your feedback, so don’t feel confined to just the survey. You can:
* Talk to your Academic Adviser or Programme Director
* Be a student representative
* Complete module evaluations
Remember, you have so many channels to get your voice heard, make sure you use them!
The NSS closes at the end of April, so complete the survey now at: http://www.thestu

On the 20th of March, Kent Business School announced the winner of the NSS iPad Mini draw. Here’s what Diana Forson had to say about the NSS:
‘Kent Business School offers many opportunities for personal development from guest speakers to a variety of modules and workshops which I have been able to take advantage of. The NSS has allowed everyone to express their true opinions on their experiences at the University and at Kent Business School.’
