Canadian Undergraduate Survey Consortium (CUSC)

The purpose of conducting the surveys of the Canadian Undergraduate Survey Consortium (CUSC) is to obtain information on students regarding their experiences and concerns at the University of Saskatchewan (U of S). In order to gain a better understanding of U of S students, these results are also compared to those of students attending institutions across Canada.

The CUSC surveys run in a three-year cycle, with different student populations targeted each year: first-year undergraduate students, all undergraduate students, and graduating students.
