| Provide a brief description of the purpose and goals of this project. | The purpose of the study is to administer a web-based survey of entering first-year students that is concise, relevant to issues of interest at Cornell, maps logically onto subsequent surveys of our undergraduate students, and enables efficient turn-around of survey results. The survey will explore entering students' high school activities and achievements; personal goals, attitudes and abilities; and expectations of their Cornell experience. |
