Beginning College Survey of Student Engagement (BCSSE)
The Beginning College Survey of Student Engagement (BCSSE) is designed to collect
data regarding entering college students’ high school academic and co-curricular experiences
as well as their expectations for participating in educationally purposeful activities
during their first year of college. BCSSE results are linked with the National Survey
of Student Engagement (NSSE).
*The 2011 BCSSE replaced the CIRP National Freshman Survey at OSU.
The BCSSE instrument was designed by the National Survey of Student Engagement. Additional
details about the survey are available on the BCSSE website at http://bcsse.indiana.edu/.
