The University鈥檚 Assessment & Institutional Research (AIR) unit administered the Priorities Survey for Online Learners (PSOL) to 七色视频 students. The measures the satisfaction and priorities of students specifically in online undergraduate and graduate programs at two-year and four-year institutions. The survey, which is administered to 89,261 online students from over 150 participating institutions, identifies what is important to students and examines their satisfaction with these items.
