Comparison Group 3: All other 2013 and 2014 U.S. NSSE institutions (2013 and 2014 Canadian participants are also included in this group for Canadian institutions).

The NSSE

Institutional Report

displays core survey results for your students alongside those of three comparison groups. In May, your

institution was invited to customize these groups via the "Report Form" on the Institution Interface. This report summarizes how your

comparison groups were constructed and lists the institutions within them.

NSSE comparison groups may be customized by (a) identifying specific institutions from the list of all 2013 and 2014 NSSE participants, (b)

composing the group by selecting institutional characteristics, or (c) a combination of these. Institutions that choose not to customize receive

default groups

that provide relevant comparisons for most institutions.

Institutions that appended additional question sets in the form of topical modules or through consortium participation were also invited to

customize comparison groups for the corresponding reports by choosing from the institutions where the question sets were administered. The

default for these groups is all other 2013 (if applicable) and 2014 institutions where the questions were included. Please note: Comparison

groups for additional question sets (topical modules and consortium questions) are documented within those reports.

Comparison groups are

located in the

institutional reports as

illustrated in the mock

report at right. In this

example, the three

groups are "Public

Master's L," "Large

Public," and "NSSE

2013 & 2014."

This report consists of

three sections that

provide details for each

of your comparison

groups, illustrated at

right.

a. The default groups are:

Comparison Group 1: For institutions not in a NSSE consortium, this group contains 2013 and 2014 NSSE institutions in the same geographic region and sector (public/private). For consortium institutions, it contains results for the other 2013 (if applicable) and 2014 consortium members.

Comparison Group 2: All other 2013 and 2014 U.S. NSSE institutions sharing your institution's Basic Carnegie Classification. (Canadian institutions are not classified by the Carnegie Foundation, and must identify a comparison group.)

Comparison Group Name

The name assigned to the comparison group is listed here.

How Group was Constructed

Indicates whether your group was drawn from a list, built based on criteria, or is the default group. If institutional characteristics were used to build your comparison group, they are listed here.

Institution List

The names, cities and states or provinces of the comparison institutions are listed for your reference. NSSE 2013 participants are identified with an asterisk.
