GEAR UP Student Surveys

GEAR UP College Tour Survey

When students attend a virtual college tour or an on campus tour, they are asked to complete a short survey.   Students provide their name on the survey as a way to record their participation in the tour and to help GEAR UP graduation coaches know what colleges/universities  students might be interested in and why.  This information enables the Graduation Coaches to connect students with the programs and colleges/universities that are of interest.  The GEAR UP College Tour Survey questions can be found at this link:

GEAR UP Annual Survey

Each year GEAR UP students are asked to complete a survey to identify their perspective on grant activities.  This allows GEAR UP staff to identify which services were the most helpful.  Results are not recorded by student name and are anonymous.  The GEAR UP Annual Survey can be found at this link:
