6 Questions and Answers About the Orange Survey
The Orange Survey invites undergraduate students to share insight into their student experience and enhance the future of the University. Feedback on academics, campus life, finances and co-curricular activities directly helps to shape programs and resources.
“Hearing directly from students is the best way for Syracuse University to know what really needs to improve,” says Safiyyah Subhan-Khan ’26, a student in the School of Architecture. “I took the survey because it gives us an outlet to share what’s working and what needs to change.”
Below, six questions and answers about the survey:
- How do students access the Orange Survey? Students have received a unique link (and friendly reminders) to the survey in their Syracuse University email (@syr.edu).
- How long does it take to complete? About 10 minutes.
- Are students compensated for completing the survey? Students who complete the survey will be entered into random drawings for several different prizes including:
- $75 gift cards for Amazon, Target and Etsy
- Early Fall 2026 course registration
- What will responses be used for? Responses are valuable because they capture student voices and feedback, which in turn provide essential information to inform and guide the development of student-focused programs, services and resources at the University.
- What are the confidentiality details? All responses are kept confidential; reporting of the results will be done in aggregate.
- When does the survey close? Students are encouraged to complete it as soon as possible. The survey closes Sunday, Dec. 7.
The Orange community is encouraged to remind undergraduate students to participate in the survey.
“If I’m going through something on campus, good or bad, I’m sure I’m not the only one…” Jayeola Oluokun ’24, College of Arts and Sciences says. “[Completing the survey] lets me help my community out, so why wouldn’t I say something?”
