Over the past ten years, the University has placed increased emphasis on improving the student experience. The Student Experiences Survey has been administered every other year since 1997 to measure results.
Recent results reflect a number of UMD priorities. The campus's attempt to diversify its community and provide support for students of color has been met with an increase of general satisfaction from students of color. The campus also has made substantial improvements in its physical environment with the addition of new buildings and upgraded classrooms. These improvements have been followed by increases in satisfaction with the physical environment. Decreased satisfaction in the cost of attendance remains a concern. The figures below summarize undergraduate student responses and graduate student responses in the 10 survey areas.
