Report Comparisons

Reading This Report

Comparison Group 3: All other 2015 and 2016 U.S. NSSE institutions (2015 and 2016 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 a 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 2015 and 2016 NSSE participants,

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

received default groupsa 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 those reports. The default for those groups was all other 2015 and 2016 institutions where the questions

were administered. Please note: Comparison group details for topical module and consortium reports are documented separately in 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 "GLC

Peers," "Carnegie

Peers," and "NSSE

2015 & 2016."

This report consists of

three sections that

provide details for each

of your comparison

groups, illustrated at

right.

NSSE 2016 Selected Comparison GroupsAbout This Report

a. The default groups are:

Comparison Group 1: For institutions not in a NSSE consortium, this group contains 2015 and 2016 NSSE institutions in the same geographic region and sector (public/private).

For consortium institutions, it contains results for the other 2015 (if applicable) and 2016 consortium members.

Comparison Group 2: All other 2015 and 2016 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 NameThe name assigned to the comparison group is listed here.

How Group was ConstructedIndicates 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 ListThe names, cities and states orprovinces of the comparison

institutions are listed for your

reference. NSSE 2015 participants are identified with an asterisk.
