The survey closes December 15. Take 15 minutes to help shape the future for students like you!
Remember your first day on campus? Maybe you felt excited, nervous, lost, or all three at once. Your journey as an international student at UT Austin is unlike anyone else’s, and we want to hear about it.
Why Your Experience Counts
For the sixth year, UT Austin is participating in the International Student Barometer (ISB), a global survey that gives you a direct line to decision-makers. This isn’t just another survey that disappears into a void. Your responses help us understand what’s working well and where we can improve.
Think of it as your chance to share your honest perspective about:
- Did orientation prepare you for life here?
- Is your education meeting your expectations?
- Have you found your people and your community?
- What aspects of student life have been most meaningful to you?
When you complete the ISB, you’re joining thousands of international students worldwide who are shaping the future of global education. Plus, you’ll be entered into a prize drawing because we appreciate your time.
