Thank you for completing the graduate follow-up survey online. It takes about 2 minutes!

Each year, the Minnesota State Legislature asks that MSU gather information on the status of our graduates. Summarized responses to this survey provide current and prospective students with information useful for selecting major programs and determining job markets. A summary report is also shared with MSU faculty and posted on our website but individual responses are held in confidence. You can see the results of past surveys on our website at http://www.mnsu.edu/cdc/resources/statistics/. If you have questions, call our toll free number at (800)374-4886.
