  2. The Freshman Survey • The CIRP Freshman Survey provides institutions with information on the characteristics, values, and expectations of your incoming first-year students. Providing insight on how your incoming class changes over time and compares to your peers, the survey is most valuable as the start of a longitudinal assessment program that continues with the Your First College Year Survey, the Diverse Learning Environments Survey, and the College Senior Survey. • This presentation is designed to provide a visual executive summary of the results.
