Exit Survey of Graduates

What is the Exit Survey?

The exit survey is administered electronically to each graduating class of Southwestern College Professional Studies learners in December, May and August to glean insights into their learning experience. The exit survey is designed to capture information about mastery of institutional outcomes, student satisfaction and marketing demographics. Selected results are also recorded on the College Choices for Adults website where comparison among numerous adult serving institutions is a featured capability.
