"Dis 'n goeie ding wat die universiteit kan gebruik, en hul studente help."

Sup

.

"My ma het my kos in 'n bakkie geskep, toe ry die bakkie weg"

Baie deeglik. Welgedaan.

Die vraelys is billik en kan baie studente in die toekoms motiveer om met hul tekortkominge na vore te kom.

Dit was redelik goeie vrae en maklik om te beantwoord.

Goeie vraelys.Dit laat my myself as n student beter verstaan.Ek dink dit is ook in lyn met die univ. se toekoms visie om innoveering/ innovation te bevorder.

Die vraelys is baie volledig

Wie het hierdie vraelys opgestel?

Daar is heelwat spelfoute en problem met die struktuur van sommige sinne. Om te vraestel doeltreffnd te antwoord sal student ook meer tyd moet spandeer voordat die vrae doeltreffend beantwoord kan word.

Dis bietjie lank en vervelig.

Meeste van die vrae is irrelevant en sommige van die opsies om te kies op die multi-keuse lyse pas nie by mekaaar nie en behoort n aparte vraag te wees.

maak dit korter

Party van die multi-keuse vrae se anywoorde maak nie sin op die vraag nie ! Dankie vir die geleentheid !

Dit was great!

Geen

dit was intressant

dankie was lekker gewees

"Dit is effens moeilik om te weet watter kwalifikasie mens wil bereik, en byvoorbeeld hoe belangrik die grootmaak van 'n gesin is as jy nog nie 'n groot verantwoordelikheidsin het nie."

EK VOEL dat dit belangrik is vir die universiteit om my te help.

vrae is van pas en sal help

Dit was heel billik.

Ek hou van die indiepte vrae en voel nie persoonlik aangevat of teen gediskrimineer nie. Dit voel asof die universiteit werklik vir alle student en belanghebbendes omgee. Baie dankie.

"Sal graag my rekenaarvaardighede wil verbeter , en n kursus bywoon oor hoe om my kursus n sukses te maak . "

GEEN

Om visuele hulpmiddels aan te wend.

Baie goed

Hierdie vraelys is totaal eerlik beantwoord

Goed

Ek het dit geniet.

"Meer spesifieke en duidelike vrae sodat enige iemand dit maklik kan interpreter en verstaan, sonder om dit 2 maal te lees"

Geen

Geen

Dis te lank

Van die afrikaanse vrae is swak gestel en blyk asof dit direk vanaf engels transleer is. Let asb. daarop.

iets to long.

Dis n goeie vraelys en het my gehelp om te besef hoe hard ek yntlik in die jaar gaan moet werk.

Ek het 'n genetiese longsiekte Cystic Fibrosis en dit mag van my vereis om soms klasse nie by te woon nie a.g.v terapie en my gesondheids toestand.

Dit is 'n baie goeie vraelys wat studente kan help in gebiede waar hul sukkel.

Dit is 'n goeie vraelys wat jou kan help om meer oor jou eie lewe na te dink en ook om jou in die toekoms te kan help. die vraelys is wel bietjie lank

"Hou dit vertroulik, moet dit nie publiek maak nie, asseblief."

Hou dit vertroulik. Moet dit nie publiek maak nie.

aansoeke vir ekstra skryf tyd op skool vlak is nie altyd suksesvol indien jy akedemies sterk vertoon nie (ek het prober aansoek doen a.g.v. stadige skryfspoed). ek dink n vraag oor hoe gereeld mens jou toetse binne die voorgeskrewe tyd voltooi moet ingesluit word.

EK DINK DIT KAN ONS AS STUDENTE BAIE HELP OM SUKSES TE BEKOM.

Goed gevra en baie relevant.

Ek het dit baie geniet om die vraelys te beantwoord.

"Ek hoop julle leer iets meer van my, en put waardevolle inligting hieruit."

"Dankie aan die Universiteit , vir die geleentheid om aan hierdie instelling te kan studier."

Ek gaan werk maar net tydelike werk wat coaching behels. dit sal nie elke week wees nie.

"Hierdie was n baie deeglike opgestelde vraelys. Dit sluit aan by die georganiseerde indruk wat ek gekry het in my kort tydjie as student op die kampus.Gedurende die invul van die vraelys was daar hier en daar onduidelikhede, maar ek het so goed as moontlik prober saamwerk."

"Baie dankie vir die vraelys. Ek dink dit is 'n noodsaaklike deel van universiteitslewe. Ek hoop my antwoorde kon help. Daar was wel sekere dele wat ek nog meer opsies sou wou merk. Wat deeltydse werkstye betref, ek sal wel vakansies werk vir sakgeld, so dalk kan 'n opsie daarvoor in die vraelys gebruik word. Baie dankie."

Dit is 'n goeie vraelys en stel my gerus dat die universiteit my kan en wil help.

Die vraelys was baie spesifiek om meer uit te vind oor wie ek is. Hopelik help dit die Universiteit van Stellenbosch

geen

Goed vir navorsing

Langdraadig.

Die vrae is redelik en het my gehelp om myself te evalueer en na te dink oor my toekoms. Dit help baie.

goed

hierdie vrae lys is ongelooflik lank

geen vrae nie dankie>dankie.

Dit is goeie vraelys want dit wys ons studente dat die universiteit omgee.

Ek het geen finansi?Ūle ondersteuning/versekering nie. Sal enige hulp waardeer. Ek het vir die jaar R20 000 gespaar en ingesamel. My kursus gaan my R33000 (en iets) uitwerk.

ek dink die vraelys is baie hulpsaam en help om die student beter te leer ken en in ons behoeftes te voorsien

"Persoonlik dinK ek ek dat die vraelys my vorentoe baie sal help, veral as iemand my wil help om my en ander se emosionele en fisiese welstand te verbeter."

Ek dink dit is baie goed om uit te vind hoe student inpas en wat hulle welstand is en dat dit net kan help om ons studies te bevorder

dankie vir die omgee.

geen

Geen kommentaar.

"By sekere dinge mag ek dalk onseker gewees het, maar glad nie baie nie. Ek het my bes prober om akkurate antwoorde te gee, maar mag op ander dae somtyds verskil van seker antwoorde. Maar die vrae was eerlik beantwoord."

"Ek sou voorstel, dat dit nie so oppervlakkig is nie en meer oor my persoonlike behoeftes uitvra. Dit raak vir my nie al die aspekte wat in my lewe belangrik is nie"

ek hoop regtig die universiteit sal my help

"Ek het nie heeltemal verstaan wat by vraag 8 gevra word nie, my eindeksamen in graad 12 het ek defnitief my beste gelewer en dit was nie moeilik nie, ek het baie hard geleer en my tyd goed uit een gesit vir studie-tyd. Die vraestelle was nie so moeilik nie ek het net hier en daar bietjie vasgesit maar het net my beste gegee en my werk wat ek geleer het op papier gesit. Ek het baie goed gedoen en het n uitstekende finale rapport gekry vir graad 12 en ek het beslis my doelwitte bereik. Ek sien baie uit om by Stellenbosch Universiteit te studeer en om my beste te gee in alles wat ek doen, ek hoop nog om n positiewe antwoord op my aansoek tot n beurs te ontvang vanaf die Departement vir Maatskaplike Werk. Ek geniet Stellenbosch Universiteit so baie. Vriendelike Groete, Charne Germishuizen."

Politiek in vrraelys?

dis baie leeswerk.maar interessant!

Die vraelys is goed gestruktureed en baie relevant. Persoonlike vrae laat jou meer dink oor die toekoms

The questionnaire is very thorough and covers all aspects. I felt it was well asked to get an overall view of what the student needs and his/her concerns.

I have none

Very good way to offer assistance and guidance where needed.

It is a very well set out questionnaire. Very easy to answer.

very deep and cover a variety of subjects

"It was interesting, just quite long. And I found the question regarding our parents' personal business, regarding divorce and such, invasive. "

There wasn't enough things about actual studying.

Great questionnaire. Hope it helps me to find support groups in various areas.

I found that this was helpful.

That it will help a lot

"Its okay, I know that the university is just trying to help me cope with what will be happening during the year and that is a good thing."

It is a reasonable and brief introduction to a student's needs and personal opinions.

"I find it very important, as the university needs to understand their students."

Was very in depth and well structured.

Learnt things about myself. Deep stuff.

useful. effective in understanding needs of students and helping them to make the most of their time at the university.

I think the questionnaire was necessary and feel that it is a good way in order for the university to spot problem areas and identify the needs of students.

I really enjoyed answering the questions. Helped me reflect on myself and where I want to go in the next few years.

It is a very informative questionnaire.

"Helpful, appropriate. "

I think this questionnaire is great way to communicate with the students as well as a way in order to help those who need it but do not tell anyone.

If successful in enhancing my academic success then the questionnaire will have been of great use. Excellent service.

chilled

Very personal but well set out. if this questionnaire can help all students then I think it is a good idea. Possibly to re do the questionnaire every year.

Fair questions. It is fairly long but if the answers are going to be used for my benefit it okay.

I think it gives the right people the right information about a student in case they need the help.

I think that the questionnaires asked could be of great benefit to me and many of the students around me.

The questionnaire is realistic and shows the importance of having a balanced lifestyle.

It allows one to re-evaluate their reasons for studying further. It also allows you to get to know yourself better.

Some questions were quite personal but I actually learnt a lot about myself in the process

Very interesting questions. I hope it is helpful.

"Good, I like that they take an interest in the students"

It is a good way to get the know the students on a more personal manner.

It could be useful.

I have no Opinion...

This questionnaire may help the me and others to build themselves up and the university to support students.

This questionnaire can be greatly beneficial to students and to the University. It also allows Stellenbosch University to have a better understanding of the students' lives.

I think this questionnaire is successful in a way where I could be helped on a more personal level by the university after they have read through my personal information. this helps with covering certain aspects about myself and gives me confirmation on why I am here and how successful and determined I am and want to be.

I think that this questionnaire is necessary to help us students enhance our academic success as we all need a little help in the right direction.

"Great, us students need all the help we can get!"

it is to long

"I hope that this questionnaire will truly be able to help, understand and solve the relevant issues "

The questionnaire helps a student to identify with their personality and how they handle studies.

I think the questionnaire is exactly what the students need ahead of the start of their journey in Stellenbosch.

I found it varied- thus useful

An interesting service.

Interesting. Provokes thought.

Excellent questionnaire that made me consider a few things again.

Useful

"I think the questionnaire covers a broad spectrum of topics, I unfortunately do not have any other topic I could suggest to be added on or a comment. You pretty much cover everything :) ."

important

Very well rounded and I think the results will give a fairly accurate perception of the student.

This is very useful to show students that this university is a supportive and comfortable place to be.

It seems to be general and relevant questionnaire which is quit important to the academic success of us first year students.

This questionnaire is very effective not only does it make you reflect on yourself as well but it helps you to understand certain things that are important to you as a student as well.

"I believe this questionnaire is very helpful in addressing certain issues, especially if someone requires help but does not know who to speak to regarding these issues."

I think it is quite a comprehensive questionnaire with well thought out questions.

The questionnaire is too long.

It's very detailed and too long.

It allowed me to appreciate the University's efforts to improve my life as a student.

thumbs up

"Well balanced; giving those reading/considering the student a better way to assess the individual holistically. The information above makes the individual more realistic, rather than considering him/her as a mere number."

Interesting

Too long.

"IT WAS A BIT LONG, BUT HELPFU"

very interesting and helpfull

A useful exercise for the university to get a better understanding of me as a student.

Very considerate and potentially beneficial. Thank you!

It was very interesting.

no comment

:)

I really enjoyed participating in the questionnaire.

"I think the questionnaire is an incredibly intriguing thing, as it helps one introspectively analyse themselves and become more self-aware. "

this questionnaire is very in-depth which gives this questionnaire a reason to be a reliable one. this questionnaire allows you to really think about the things that matter and how much they do.

This questionnaire has asked valid and useful questions that I understood and was happy to answer. No lines were crossed and I can see how my answers could help me whilst studying here.

Personable without being too personal; good.

it was quite introspective and made me reflect on how I will continue in my university career and whether I will continue in the same vein as high school.

"It is very informative and helpful as it helps me, as a student realize what kind of student I am."

It's a good way to do research on students

it made me think deeper about who I am and what I want

It asked some relevant questions that enabled me to think more about myself and who I am.

some questions are valid and helpful while some are personal and should be dealt with alone.

It takes too long.

Great. This Questionnaire forced me to think about a few things regarding myself and my future goals. Motivational!

the questionaire is a bit strange. though it makes you aware of areas in your life that needs working on. though i hope the university will provide assistance to students that do have some serious issues.

it was excellent

Very helpful in terms of reminding you why you are here and what you want to achieve

It is a well-rounded questionnaire encompassing the majority of important aspects of an undergraduate student. Thank you!

Could be very helpful information to the lecturer/faculty.

The questionnaire asked very intruding questions which could make a few people exceptionally uncomfortable and think again about studying at this institution.

good.

I think it is a good initiative if taken seriously but I do feel that peoples emotions do change from time to time.

i think it's good. A bit vague

the questions are clever

long but good and thorough

It was fun.

It is good. Helps you to think about what will effect your studies.

One can gather valuable information from students through this questionnaire.

I think its good and can help a lot.

"This questionnaire has been of great help. It has enabled me to really think about the things I do in my free time and what I aspire to do. I feel more enriched and know what the future holds for me, a successful life "

I felt that it very time consuming.

Quite long but very appropriate. questions asked induce the idea that the university has students' best interest at heart. Hopefully the feedback will be helpful.

Way too long

Some irrelevant questions and options are tedious. Otherwise good :) /(0.0)/

it is very informative and helpful

It is a useful questionnaire which definitely enables the university to find out more about their students.

I feel that can serve as a very effective baseline in order to help students in various aspects.

"It's good, just a bit long."

"It can be used to benefit me in the future, although I do think it was a bit time consuming."

"It is a good questionnaire, in the sense that it covers all aspects of the student life thoroughly."

Great questionnaire as it has purely been formulated to benefit students.

I find it helpful in reference to the fact that it aims your lecturers to understand you better and make sure that you will get assistance when you need it. As a first year student I don't feel as nervous and alone because I know I will have support.

It provoked thought regarding myself and the direction my life is headed.

the questions was straight forward and not to pesonal

I feel it was quite well rounded and appropriate for the task it was constructed for .

Very necessary.

very interesting and useful for personal and overall reflection.

effective

I hope it will help me get assistance where I need it.

I enjoyed answering the questions because they were personal and they will hopefully help to uplift my academic potential.

they are so specific to what I experienced. I guess they will bring me help

"Not very useful and a waste of time. Some questions might be of some help, but I feel it is unnecessary for so much information to be asked of one person for anyone who is able to read it to see. "

"It is a well-structured questionnaire, and it would be quite wonderful, if the suggestions should be put into practice, not just within the university, but throughout the whole country. An example, as such, is addressing issues such as rape, child abuse, and corruption within the country. Additional development programmes would be absolutely fantastic and in doing so, more youth can be inspired to fulfil their biggest dreams!"

This questionnaire makes you more aware about who you are and how you see yourself within society.

I think it's impressive that the University is so involved and concerned with the needs of the students.

ok

I think it will benefit other fellow students

I do not see the exact point. was not explained why we doing this

It is an excellent method of tending to the individual's needs in order to make their learning experience a pleasant one.

"Great questionnaire, not too long. However, not aimed towards international students."

I feel that this questionnaire can defiantly benefit the lives of students that have financial difficulties.

very fair and crucial.

Very interesting

"It shocked me at first because I did not realize it would be so personal yet, I completed a significant session of self-reflection and that is always a positive."

It will help in understanding the needs of individual students at the university and how to assist in any areas of difficulty experienced by the student.

good information gathering. reflecting on ones self

One more thing that I have to do ;)

Good to let the university know where we stand

Very insightful. Went through a lot of topics and covered everything a student may possibly require.

I believe it is a very good and insightful questionnaire which makes one think on ones's choices. thank you

"It allowed me to evaluate and confront questions about myself, my work ethic and my view on current issues that I would not necessarily ask myself. It is, however, quite long, but important"

I think by answering the questionnaire will help the university to get better understanding of how and where the will help me.

"its very simple, asks valid questions and doesn't seem too forward"

it is a great way to get to know each and every first years specific needs.

Very well planned and executed questionnaire. I felt that the questions covered the entire spectrum of my studies and student life but also everything concerning me personally. I hope that it will be of use.

very long but I understand its value and how it can help the university.

this questionnaire is good.it helped me to answer questions that I never answered concerning my life.i know more things about me now.

Very useful. Good insight.

It was understandable.

"quite personal, but I understand the importance of evaluating each student's ""need"""

helpful towards my academic success

ITS WAS FUN

It is an effective way of getting to know what kind of person is enrolling at this institution.

"it has made me think more about who I am, and where my interests lay, and also what I should improve on in my life. "

it will help students where they are lacking but not realise it

Would be of great assistance.

"it helped me to ask myself questions I never gave thought. And it is a great way of knowing yourself, and I enjoyed it"

I think it can be very useful/helpful to improve the well-being of this institutions students.

It helps students have a successful university experience

valid questionnaire

Think this is a really great way to find out what a learners hurdles are when it comes to their studies and in what way the varsity can offer them help.

"I think the questionnaires have more realistic facts which may be useful for and maybe get all the help which, so I could a flourishing better person for myself, my parents and to my future kids. otherwise I enjoyed sharing my biography with the people I trust. thanks"

It helps you figure out what are future perspectives.

this questionnaire poses valid questions which I feel are necessary and valuable in discussion. making small changes using the information gathered from this questionnaire can make the world of difference to SU! ESPECIALLY concerning issues where the personal well-being of students is involved.

I actually enjoyed it and I hope it will be benefitial to me.

It's a great way of getting to know the students on a personal levelin various factors.

I can see the reasoning and purpose of This questionnaire as it came across as highly appropriate

Very well structured. It is good for the university to hear what we as students think of ourselves and if we think we will succeed.

Quite personal but I think it will make a positive difference.

Useful and may lead to a better student-university path of communication. Allows students with problems the appropriate help they need.

This questionnaire requires one to know oneself quite well to be able to fill in some of the questions

I found that it was very thorough and would be an excellent way of providing a student with help in a manner that allows them to remain somewhat anonymous.

"I feel it is a well thought out questionnaire. I hope the information will be used appropriately for example even though I ticked ""will probably have enough funds for university"" does not mean I do not want information regarding bursaries etc."

This questionnaire forced me to think about myself and my goals.It encouraged me to think realistically about the kind of person I would ultimately like to become.

I think it is a well based questionnaire that focuses on creating self-awareness and self acceptance of the persons character and allows the student to reflect on himself/herself before he start of the academic year

Good.

This questionnaire made me think about some questions that is important to be asking myself. Thank you.

I think it is an appropriate platform to find out what problems students might have and address them

In instances could be wrongly perceived

The questions are essential and they help people to reflect on themselves . I enjoyed it

it is a good way to get a better understanding of us students and also got me as a student questioning myself and where I see myself in the future

Some of the rating scales are weird as are some of the questions.

It is useful.

I think it was good to find out more to help students with individual needs.

Very appropriate and necessary questionnaire.

it is very useful

The questionnaire really forced to think about important topics that should be considered.

It is a thorough questionnaire that incorporates all the necessary questions a student needs to know how to answer in order to build his/her confidence in starting this new academic career

I think the questionnaire is a great initiative. Stellenbosch moulds well rounded people and it is one of the reasons why I decided to study here. The university understands that success is achieved through being well rounded and healthily balanced. The questions are to the point and openly addresses issues or concerns that a student might have.

seemed very helpfull

useful

I an understand e importance of these questions as they focus the personalities and well-being of the students.

this is a very personal questionnaire with a few repetitive questions and some meaningless / unnecessary questions. but I can see the over-all incentive for it.

It was straight forward and seems like a good method of determining whether one needs assistance or advice with their studies r social structure.

The questionnaire will give the university more insight on me as a student

helpful

helps one reflect

it was very good.

I think questionnaires are a good way to learn more about people and their needs and help them out where you can. It also helps to learn more about a specific group if people and getting more information.

okay

Questions are quite specific and personal

I think its very helpfull

It was user friendly and I believe the university will use it to my advantage.

it is utterly helpful.

"Some of the questions are vague however, some seem to be exactly the issues that need to be addressed. Thank you"

"it was appropriate and fun, great for reflection and self evaluation"

It's a very comprehensive questionnaire that covers most fields.

"interesting and specific,well thought-out to cater for the student"

Very good questionnaire!! Very valuable questions that I hadn't even ask myself.

It will be quite useful to identify the needs of students and to identify in which areas the university can focus on.

I THINK THAT THE QUESIONNAIRE IS VERY HELPFUL IN TERMS OF JUST LOOKING AT HOW TO GO ABOUT DOING THINGS AND ALSO BEING ABLE TO REFLECT ON YOURSELF. IH HELPS WITH INROSPECTION AND BEING ABLE TO THINK ABOUT WHETER OR NOT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH THE STRESS AND WORKLOAD IN UNIVERSITY.

I find that the questionnaire was quite helpful as it allowed myself to be quite honest with myself. I find some questions being very vague but still somewhat helpful.

thank you for giving me this opportunity to voice my opinions and understand how our minds work.

A little bit too engaging into personal issues.

I think this questionnaire is of essential value and can truly enrich the experience that we as individuals will enjoy during our studies here at the university of Stellenbosch.

"Very long , but detailed. :)"

"Helpful, to the point and succinct."

very in depth but is essential to answer.

"Very thorough, but worthwhile information for the university to gather."

I am finding this questionaire very interesting and important because it make to want know myself and the entire university on a deep level.

very detailed and personal

No particularly strong feelings one way or the other regarding the questionnaire.

helpfull

"Helpful, insightful questions."

A good way to help and assist students with their problems.

I think it is useful for the university to gather information about the students who attend the university in order to cater for them and improve facilities and programs.

Helps to make you realize what you think and how you actually feel

Fair

"It was very long, I lost concentration. I have a short attention span."

The questionnaire was thorough and the questions were well-explained.

It was very detailed and made me think about certain things I wouldn't usually contemplate.

"I feel that the questionnaire will provide comprehensive information about students, that may be used by the university in a constructive manner."

good

it is good because you reflect who you are and it makes you think

It was very helpful and I strongly believe that I could benefit from it.

I hope that this questionnaire will help me to succeed in my career here and help me to benefit from all the oporunities they offer

Asked some interesting and though-provoking questions.

Good questionnaire. Good idea to offer help.

good but it can cater for more options in certain questions

very insightful.

it was good .I realized a lot more about myself my thinking bout the questions.

I feel that this questionnaire helps one to understand ones self better

very helpful but only if the university follows through with the requests

The question asked in the questionnaire were very stimulating.

It is very helpful in understanding students needs and concerns and identifying where help is needed.

I realized a lot more about myself. This questionnaire made me more focus on my personal goals.

It's a good way to get to know the student better in order to assist where assistance is needed.

I personally think it is a great idea because the university sees perspectives from all sides and what is expected from most of the people. This prepares the varsity professionally and financially.

I think the questions that were asked are appropriate and in use for the student best interest.

It allowed me not only to think outside of the box but to think inside of a different box. Great questionnaire

"Very detailed and specific, which is a good thing."

very organized and linked extremely well!

Good covered all areas.

I think that this is a really nice questionnaire and if the university can offer me appropriate help it would be beneficial.

"It was a bit long, but very in depth and might be of help to the university and could also be mutually beneficial."

It helped me to form an opinion about the kind of person I am.

I think that it is a fantastic initiative because it gives you time to reflect on yourself. It is challenging as it becomes fairly difficult for you to criticize yourself at times. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.

Too long.

Long! but would help me further in the university

"It was longer than expected but, I believe it contains information that university can use to improve different aspects of university life."

"I really enjoyed the questionnaire, it has also helped me to identify a couple of things I could possibly struggle with or need assistance with. such questionnaire could help a whole lot of other students"

I found that it will improve the student's perspective of their journey ahead.

"Very helpful,should help aid in my success at this university"

It is a good questionnaire to identify where students need help.

I think it quite good

Thus questionnaire is useful as it will allow the University to assist us on a personal level to achieve the best that we can whilst studying at the institution.

Was helpful and very good as it will aid me in my academic success

Insightful and helped me realize what all aspects of varsity include

Interesting and hopefully helpful.

Useful for the university to understand me

IT IS OF GOOD HELP BECUASE IT HELPS THE UNIVERSITY TO RECOGNISE THE THINGS IN WHICH YOU STRUGGLE.

Very useful for providing the university with information that can help them understand the students better and that can help them better cater to the needs of ach specific student. I personally felt that it was a good and thorough questionnaire.

I hope that the information will be used to help not only me but everyone who partook to make a success of their time spent studying

A could way of finding out your strengths and weaknesses. It is a help to be successful in your studies.

"I think it was a good exercise to take part in, and presented to students at a perfect time in their lives. The questions were relevant and important. However I am deeply disappointed that in question 29 Gender Equality was not provided as an option, as I feel that this is something that is often neglected in South Africa, and I would have expected a liberal and non-conformist university such as Stellenbosch to emphasise the negative impacts that gender roles have on society in general but as well as in South Africa. "

I think these are good questions cause you find out more about yourself

Helpful

It is extremely helpful.It allows the institution to keep personal track of students and their personal wellbeing.

it covers most fields and I get the sense that this will lead to assistance being offered to me in the future

Questions wasnt offensive in any way. I didn't see the questionnaire as redundant and can see its purpose in helping learners. I think it is necessary for students to complete this questionnaire.

I think this questionnaire was insightful

A very helpful questionnaire that I hopes helps me in the future.

"Rather long, but a great way to help those who can acknowledge that they want/need help."

Although I agreed to releasing the results of this test I will say it is incredibly personal when coming to political situation and believes.

"it is a very good, well thought out questionnaire. I was highly impressed with the questions asked and the thought put into the questionnaire."

I believe this was extremely helpful and very well structured.

"good , great questionnaire , long but worth it , helpful tool to know yourself , 8/10*"

good

I think the questionnaire is an appropriate idea in which to learn more about the students of the university and I admire the fact that the university takes the time to find out what the students need and what they are struggling with.

its really personal and requires me to think about what I'm saying and the aim of this questionnaire is brilliant.

I believe that it is an effective way to determine the various needs of students attending the university allowing the institution to therefore appropriately accommodate its students and make changes based on the various needs of the students.

It's too long

very thourough and very helpful. It helps to be self reflective.

"very reflective, helps one see themselves through simple image defining quetions and realise why we really here; I believe that its always good to reflect and remind yourself what you passionate about, it just makes succeeding that much easier."

"At was great, thanks. "

Very comprehensive as well as reflective.

Its a good way of developing new ideas to help students adapt to university life and excel in their studies.

It's quite lengthy but essential for you to know where you stand in terms of your mind set and your orientation

It asked questions that got me engaging with my inner self. I believe that I will get help from the university.

My opinion is I don't really understand if it's necessary.

"The questions should have more options, or at least make room for the options."

it was good to know you care about all these things

The questionnaire is a bit long and this causes the questions to have less meaning. Rather make the questionnaire shorter and ask the questions that NEED to be asked. Thank you.

The questionnaire is good and covers all aspects of a person's life and personality.

"the questionnaire was really long, but did address some important issues which I had not taken the time to think of. "

"The questions are good, straightforward and very easy to answer."

Suitable.

"The questionnaire was quite long, and I was uncertain of how to answer certain questions"

IT IS INTERESTING AND OPENS UP ONE'S MIND ABOUT ONESELF.I BELIEVE THAT IT IS INFORMATIVE.

"It was very informative to myself, and made me think about how I can improve. "

Suitable questions

This questionnaire is extremely helpful and beneficial. It is also an eye opener because you have to be honest with yourself.

the questionnaire was a bit long

The grammar of the questionnaire needs improving.

Adequate

well rounded questionnaire

its very helpful and important

it is to help students with academic and social well being. is also there so that the University can identify he needs of the students.

"Well structured with questions articulated clearly, however it would take very long to complete with perfect answers to all the questions and so I simply tried my best to answer as accurately as possible in the time available."

I have answered the questions as accurate as possible. It might not be a true reflection of me. I felt like some questions had small grey areas or I wasn't to sure where I stood exactly so my answers aren't perfectly accurate.

Logical and necessary.

Good questionnaire well balanced and probing into correct areas

Waste of time.

good

Grammar of the questionnaire needs improving.

Extremely long.

Extremely long.

It makes you think about yourself a lot.

"It was very useful in providing me a platform on which I could analyse myself and my personal needs, things that could aid me and where I excel/fall short."

The questionnaire covered various regions and subjects and some on some of the questions I had to think a bit before answering...

it is good way to get motre information about everybodies needs

Interesting

thorough

It is a good way to get feedback from students. And it makes us feel supported and cared for.

Might be very helpful in the future so that the university can help me in every way possible when needed.

Its a great way to know what we need to achieve our main goals.

It is a bit too long but the questions are relevant as I may need help in some areas.

I think it is a good way to get to know and assist students. I hope it is read and implemented.

helpful.

Helpful and reflective.

helpfull

it covered various and necessary aspects of student life

Thorough

Dit is Lekker

Relavent

A great questionnaire with appropriate and detailed questions.

It is a good initiative that make us as students think about a lot of things including finding yourself.

It could be useful to the university and beneficial for my academic success

its a bit to long

It would only be helpful to those who has problems with their own life.

Very good initiative.

"Seems a good deal of thought was placed into the type of questions asked, however I am not sure the questions are broad enough. Seems as though someone/the people that did this were rather similarly minded in which attributes needed to be assessed. Otherwise it was quite a wonderful questionnaire."

"I think that it is a good way to find out information about students and where they need help. It makes me (as a student) feel cared for and feel that if I need help, there is help."

"Very thought provoking, insightful and reflective questionnaire. It was quite enjoyable and fun. "

I think it is a very wise method to get a good understanding of the needs of the first years and students

Questions are very diverse and developed to assist student in various aspects of university life. It is a well structured questionnaire.

relevant

Very useful.

It is very detailed!!

It was very good but somewhat lengthy. It was enjoyable.

"I think it is a very good questionnaire that asks questions about all aspects of life at the College, and is a questionnaire that if answered correctly can certainly help students in need to a great degree."

"it created a opportunity to be self-reflective. however, I found it to be too long. "

It is a good way to see and thus meet the needs of the various students.

Its worth receiving the students response.

"omvattend maar lekker, would be of great assistance"

It is a very productive manner in which to see the standing of first year students globally. It also makes it possible for the university to provide assistance and help to those needing it.

It is rather helpful and allows you to reflect on yourself and your character.

It is a good questionnaire to reflect on which areas you can improve on.

Very helpful .

it was good.

i like it. I think it's necessary.

Very long winded but essential I believe to obtain an understanding of the students applying

It has definitely addressed all the issues related to student life and managing the balance. It was an essential.

Interesting to see if the limited information given can be useful but helpful nonetheless.

It is an important one to answer as it gives the university an idea of the students and it will help the students in the future.

Extremely thorough and well planned.

it gave me time to reflect

sometimes there weren't answers to the question that I wanted to choose. Could maybe add a space to type comments

"TOO LONG, BUT A GOOD QUESTIONAIRE"

Good

The questionnaire found to be personal and will hopefully help in any further studies and statistics.

It went into a lot of depth

Hopefully university finds it usefull and puts the information to good use.

It was insightful and specific. I enjoyed doing it and I think if the university uses the answers given to help students it'll be really great towards achieving academic success

it is a great way of helping students

"It was a good exercise ,it got me thinking about a few things I would not have on normal circumstances"

Long and tedious.:)

Learnt a few things about myself that I hadn't thought about before.

Interesting

It is a tool for us as first-years to use to ensure that we embark on our varsity journey with a secure foundation.

It is a good questionnaire to identify the places where a student needs help.

"Its is well structured and asked relevant questions that can benefit the learner. It is also structured to get sense of who the student is, which is good."

its a very helpful questionnaire

encompasses the entire philosophy and problems facing students at university

Very helpful.

if results are used correctly could be an amazing initiative. It was long but worth it to reflect on your own current personal state of being

will be really helpful

I see it as a great way for the university to evaluate its students and search for ways to help and support them during their studies.

"It is a good idea, however these decisions may change over time due to emotional growth or change in ones emotional state of mind when taking the questionnaire. Thus the results of this questionnaire cannot be completely replied upon throughout my tenure at Stellenbosch university"

Very relevant

its really long

Very interesting to see the university has taken the time to show care for the students through asking the necessary questions for personal growth

I see it as an important and positive system that allows students to give out who they are as honest as possible. It is such a great programme.

It is effective and thorough.

I believe that it is very detailed and can be used to benefit many students.

I suppose it's essential to complete it in order to gain a better insight into the first year's mental and emotional state.

its extremely long

"Very relevant questions for if additional help is required, however some were slightly challenging to answer at this point in time as I am sure my answers will change after being at this university for a while."

"The questionnaire was thorough, but the intent was not clear."

good

It was good.

"I feel it's helpful, although time consuming. "

The questionnaire is not inappropriate and a very good way to find out where a student would possibly need support.

It is a very concise questionnaire and enables the student to participate in the University activities in positive ways

I think it sets one's mind into thinking more about life and what it really means. It is a great questionnaire as it gives students a chance to evaluate their studies and what those studies mean to them.

Quite detailed and useful when assessing oneself in an honest and realistic manner.

"Very good, like the specific questions asked."

It is very relevant! I feel supported and ready for success!

Intersting

"Very good way to engage with the students in the university and to try and understand their needs. Students feel good, because they were part of the process and no assumptions were made. It is based on our honesty."

if the university is able t help me by using the answers that I submit then the questionnaire is working well

that it was very detailed

Reasonable

Long but I hope that the data is put to good use and will better my studies.

It really helps just to review how others might need assistance from the university as well.

"Well set out questionnaire, challenged all fields. "

Very thorough

"Very in depth, but I feel that it will be of great benefit to me, both emotionally and intellectually, in the future."

This questionnaire has helped my to gain a better understanding on my self perception

Lengthy but somewhat helpful

"Very thorough, and well thought through. Will give a good idea about what students needs are."

its long. Too long.

In lighting

useful to monitor each student.

It was a bit too long...

Makes one learn a bit more about themselves and in which areas of there life they need to work on to reach success.

"interesting , gives me the idea that the university wants to make a real difference"

Will give a general understanding of students

The questionnaire is quite lengthy and detailed.

Long yet relevant

It wasn't too long.

It was very insightful.

"Its a bit vague. The ""average"" column is not clearly defined."

It was fine

Very good.

Insightful.

I think it could be of great help!

its is informative and shows the universities concerns.

very helpful when it comes to self reflection

"Very personal. However, could be beneficial to those who need it."

It definitely is a platform for introspection

Very relevant questions asked.

Well rounded questionnaire.

"its vague but I assume that whatever the reason for this questionnaire, that there is one "

It's a very in depth questionnaire that makes me think about my life and who I am. It helped me realise that I'm elated to be where I am today. Blessed and thankful.

chilled

Good questions that explore every part of university and of the student

it is usefull

It can potentially help me to function better at the university.

"I hope that the university will provide help in the circumstances or situations which I need help in, though I am positive that they will."

"Personal, but self reflective"

I think its very helpful knowing the university wants to help us out as much as possible.

It was quite extensive.

I enjoy the idea of how the University has taken the time to attend to each student and their person needs.

It was fine.

it was fine

"It is really great to see that the university is so willing to hep us as individuals. I thought we would have to go through this alone, but the university has thus far offered a great support system."

very useful.

The questionnaire gives students a better understanding about university and what should be expected of them while studying at university.

Allows self-reflection as well as brings about the thought of the new life I am faced with.

It is very specific and vivid which is a good thing.

I feel that this questionnaire asked extremely personal questions and could maybe lower the amount of personal questions asked or either ask it in a more sensitive way.

it was long and slightly tedious but interesting none the less

I believe that the university should use my questionnaire and answer for research because I know it will help people in need and let the university run smoothly.

It can be of great benefit to both the academic and personal well being of students at the university.

this questionnaire allowed me to ask myself questions that are essential to my studies and being able to complete my studies successfully and to get an idea of hat I can do if I should ever need help regarding anything

It was really eye opening.

It's a good way to allow students to introspect themselves and evaluate their purpose at the university

It was good

Made me evaluate why I am studying here and to appreciate that I am able to.

It was relatively useful.

It has been helpful and gives me peace that I will be known and I will get the help I may later need

I hope this will be useful in analysing the state of the students enrolled and which issues are dominant within this university.

The questions could be set up or explained more clearly.

it is quite interesting.

I think it can improve the ability of the University to effectively assist its students and improve various aspects of their lives.

well rounded questionnairre

Aids in self evaluation and reflection

Useful and important.

The questions were far reaching and well thought out. The fact that compounded questions are asked makes the statement more difficult to answer.

"This was a questionnaire with relevant questions that are important in helping and understanding the students or this university. However, I feel that more questions relating to emotional well-being would benefit the university."

"The questionnaire was very personal. It's really a good thing to see that the university cares beyond it's students obtaining straight A's. I think the questionnaire reflected the new reformed image of the university; which is trying to bring everyone together, black or white. "

It was very nice to participate in this questionnaire. Thanks so much.

very personal

I think that this will be very beneficial for the university and its student body.

good questionnaire and well formulated questions

it took quite sometime to complete yet it did give me time to reflect on myself.

I think its a god way to check how all first years are feeling and how they are coping with the new adjustment.

It is very helpful because it helped me to ask myself questions that I never asked myself and get to know myself better.

I think that it gives a good indication of the different students at the university.

"It would be nice to have a space to write in your ""Other"" options in detail."

"Just pushing buttons does not give light to an opinion, if that is what you have been looking for. For statistical reasons this is a good questionnaire."

"Possibly the only thing which was not part of the questionnaire was either crime, or the fear of crime. I've been incredibly scared walking around Stellenbosch at times during my first two weeks. This has and I'm sure will continue to add unnecessary stress to my study process, in additional to stress caused by possible lack of funds, or the fear of failing and dropping out."

It is a practical way of analysing each student's needs. It is a good idea.

"It was long, but is helpful for my education and the university."

Questions need to be asked in a clearer manner. Especially question 27.

This is a great questionnaire and will be very beneficial for the university to gather this information and use it to benefit the students as a whole.

Useful information to gather information on attending students to enhance academic support.

"It felt like any other questionnaire, a bit long but very specific which is good as it makes it easier. "

very structured and straight forward.

they are very long

I think this questionnaire is a good way for the university to get to know their students and their students mind set.

It's a good way to gather information which will help offer students the necessary support needed to successfully adjust and make it through University.

Its a very good idea to get to know the students individually and use their answers to better their university experience. Its is personalized and thoughtful touch.

Interesting.

I am impressed and it could be a great help to many people.

Interesting...

It has some questions that are slightly ambiguous and some questions I wasn't sure I wanted to answer.

it was ok :)

This questionnaire will be helpful and benefit me as it will hopefully allow the university to understand more about me and where I need support

This questionnaire was long and informative. It made me really think about my life as a student and as a person within a society that is in desperate need of improvement.

it is very well set up and asks important and insightful questions

very long...but much needed for research!

"It is a little bit personal, but I understand it is to get to know us better for who we are and is the university's way of trying to help us. Thus I didn't mind participating in this questionnaire and see it as being very beneficial."

Very helpful and interesting information that I think will benefit me being aware of for my First Year of studies.

It is very long.

I think it's a good way of seeing the mentality of the students of SU.

"It is a good platform for the university to get to know the students and identify what they need, and to then use that information to help them. "

"It was a great way of letting me evaluate myself at the same time a way of me to get the help I might need but am afraid to ask for,"

Very good - looks at all areas of the student life based specifically on the university. Varied and specific

The questions were asked thoroughly.

The questionnaire was detailed and I believe it can be used to make a huge change at Stellenbosch.

THE QUESTIONAIRE WAS A BIT CHALLENGING... I HAD TO BE AS HONEST AS I CAN WITH MYSELF...AND I AM HOPING TO GET THE HELP THAT I NEED

Well-rounded questionnaire. Thank You

The questionnaire covers most aspects as to what he university should know about the students. It is beneficial to the students as they can more than likely be given assistance where needed.

The survey is a good idea and shows how much Stellenbosch cares for its students' wellbeing

I do not really enjoy answering questions about my personal well-being.

"It was quite personal but, in hopes that it will help in the future, it was great."

abit long hey but pretty cool

I think it is detailed enough to establish an accurate as possible assessment of each student.

It is very long but interesting questions.

helps to get to know yourself better

It will allow an in depth understanding of the needs of students and could be used to help me with my ADD in order to ensure that I succeed academically.

Some questions were a bit repetitive and vague

They are helpful in terms of spotting any academically barriers.

"If the above suggestions are implemented, the lives of a majority of the students will be greatly helped/made easier."

Interesting. Provokes thinking about things which would not usually be thought of.

"I feel that this questionnaire is of benefit to students, especially if those who will need help are too afraid or shy to ask for it!"

i think its very useful. It will help future students with their future problems.

It is very thought provoking :)

It's okay.

the questionnaire was interesting

It was interesting :)

It was insightful worth looking through. Helped me think about things clearly. In Essence very helpful.

Very good! I think it will help the students to set their goals and know that there are people who can help.

It was too long. Some of the options were vague. More options for question number 3.

I love that the university is taking an interest in our individual needs.

It is very personal but for a good cause in helping students.

it essential to me and for the varsity in terms of statistical information

"The questionnaire was good, IT MADE ME THINK ABOUT CERTAIN THINGS BUT I HAD NO PROBLEM ANSWERING ANY OF THE QUESTIONS"

"It is good to know that all aspects of our lives (our personal needs, emotions and preferences) are considered when joining the university. It also helps you to identify and think more about some issues/subjects you might not have noticed before."

It is nice to know that the university cares about these things

The questionnaire was informative and I Fell that the questions asked are essential questions that should be answered for the university to improve.

It is useful and will aid me into learning/studying in the best way possible. It will allow others to understand my issues so that they can be sorted out accordingly.

"It is well rounded and not only focuses on the academic success of students, but also allows Stellenbosch University to understand the students' needs. It is therefore good, since support from the university is crucial for a student's success."

I think its a very useful way to not only get to know each ones personal needs but a vital way to provide assistance in the most suitable way.

"I think this questionare is very helpful,not just for students but for the university as well. For some students it might have revealed some truths about themselves that they did not know. This will be very helpful to the university as it will give the staff a better and more thorough idea of what the needs of this university is and will be. "

"Well thought out, but maybe a tad personal. "

The results should be confidential.

"It's like an LO questionnaire, but I see the purpose of it. "

"Good,I hope the information I provided will be used to my benefit and others."

Good and thoughtful questionnaire.

necessary and interesting.

It helps you to discover your inner self and to express that in public.

I found it to be too personal.

quite personal

I felt that this questionnaire was important and I commend the university for the extra mile that they go with their student support.

I can see how the information would be of value if it is not abused. I expect the answers to remain confidential. I hope this information will be useful.

I believe that this questionnaire is helpful to all parties involved.

I think that it may help with the university helping my studies.

useful

"I think the questionnaire is very interesting as it actually makes you as a student aware of what your routines, interests and habits are and helps the student to reflect on them. "

Very important

very usefull

"It seems a bit vague sometimes, but I hope it's useful."

The questions made me think a lot about my life and examine what I am doing.

Not always particularly clear.

The questionnaire is substantial and asks a sufficient amount of questions for the time allocated to them.

Why is it necessary to know a students time spent in prayer or if the believe life has a specific purpose

Relevant questions asked. Time consuming.

I think that it is very essential to the plan of making Stellenbosch one of the top Universities in the world and helping mentors and SRC to plan more effective events as well as perform their duties

good

"I found some of the questions to be intrusive, but was willing to answer if help will be given because of them"

well organised

"I think it was a well-formulated questionnaire with interesting and diverse questions, and answering these questions felt purposeful and not as if it were something that just needed to be done in as quick time as possible."

very helpful. eye opening

"I think that the questionnaire was good. It made you think about your answers. For some of the questions, the way it was asked was a bit confusing so I had to re-read it to understand what was being asked."

I think it could be of great help. Some questions didn't have answers appropriate for me. Should have more 'other' options.

Somewhat thought-provoking. It was full of interesting questions that made me think about myself.

"Was helpful and made me think more about who I am, what my goals are and created a feeling of support from the university."

The questionnaire is not only useful in gathering data but also for the student doing it as they are able to identify their strengths and weaknesses and work on these particular things. It is a good introduction to what is to come and a reminder of our foundations.

Seems like it could be helpful. While personal it could be necessarily so.

Little long but interesting questions

it helps you access what factors you need to work on.

Very helpful.

Fairly personal and too in depth into the psychological side. Some questions need to be separated into two question such as number 2 at question 30.

"Good, I am sure it will help a lot!"

It is a great way to offer help to those who need/want it and it also makes it possible for the person self to put his/her life into perspective.

"It is a bit long and sometimes a little hard to answer because it requires personal reflection, but overall it is good, especially in allowing one to receive help."

I think that the questionnaire is very well constructed and that the questions that were asked were very well stated and easy to understand. I enjoyed answering the questionnaire and had no difficulty answering any of the questions.

Good questions asked that make me think about my purpose of studying here.

It is a good questionnaire to be able to get to know and engage with students.

I think it will help not just only me but most of the first year students.

"I believe that this questionnaire will be able to help all first year students, as it will enable the University Support Groups to identify any problems early on."

was very helpful

Very helpful and informative

I think that it can really people who are often in denial that they are in need of help.

I believe that it is of great aid to the university in pin pointing which students need the most help in specific areas.

it actually makes you think

The questionnaire asks good questions that every student should know at this point of their lives. I am satisfied with the questionnaire.

relevant

Good

very personal but interesting.

It helped me to think clearly about my strong and weak points

It is nice to see the university taking interest in the students.

I enjoyed the questionnaire's structure and hope that information that I have submitted will be of use to myself and others that will received assistance from it's database statistics and goals.

Thorough

"I felt that the questionnaire is quite good, and that it may help a great many people."

The questionnaire not only gives the university feedback on how it can support its students. It allows the student to reflect on his/her self and purpose at varsity.

It covers a broad range of questions that could really be to the University's benefit.

There were some very valid questions asked to get a general understanding.

Covers all bases

Its a very long yet insightful questionaire

Although it is necessary and relevant - its is extremely long!

It was well put together.

I thoroughly enjoyed answering this questionnaire and hope it will be of help to you in developing the university and supporting students.

Interesting and could prove helpful

Some of the questions are beneficial in the sense that I had to reflect on my answers as well while others I felt were unnecessary. Thank you!

The questionnaire is good as it gives the university perspective as to what a student may need whilst studying at Stellenbosch University.

it helps one think about yourself as a person and whether you're in the correct field according to what your answers or responses were. all in all the questionnaire was a good one.

I think it is a great way to understand a student and their specific needs and feel that it can be used to enhance the learning experience of the student.

It is good.

Informative to university however very long and not concise enough for my likings.

good

Good

overall very good to discover the needs of the students with a few pointless questions

hopefully it will be helpful and make peoples lives easier.

Great way Of collecting personal data for each student without using to much man power

It is a brilliant questionnaire

It's good that the university cares for the well being of the students. valid questions

"I thought the questionnaire was a bit of a waste of time, but hopefully the information I provided will help make Stellenbosch a better place for myself and others like me. "

The questionnaire was very thorough. An option for the question of distance from family should be added for those students who like more than 100km from their parents/family.

It is very thorough and reassuring.

"useful, but very long"

Pretty well chosen questions

Brilliant questions

Some of the questions are very general and make assumptions about the student answering them.

"A few of the questions seemed to repeat itself and were irrelevant. My emotional health (i.e) if I get depressed, should not be something discussed in a public questionnaire "

interesting to see the types of things US wants to know. I'm sure I will enjoy it here

Excellent questions

It was very long but good questions were asked.

"It was very well structured,but some questions needed more options on how to answer them."

Interesting

I believe that the questionnaire will help anybody with any issues that they may have. thank you.

"Good questionnaire, just too long. "

This questionnaire covers pretty much everything. Nothing is left out. Quite satisfied with the questions asked. Questions were not weird but all being reasonable. Thanks!

I think it is wonderful as this questionnaire provides an important window for the university to help students cope directly with personal weaknesses and issues that ultimately have an effect on their academic success.

If information is actually used to help students and it is not just for interest sake then it is defiantly a brilliant idea

It covers a wide range of my personal information which is good.

"I think it is fair and could prove to be very useful, to students as well as the university."

"very good, covers all of the needs."

very useful

"great, I appreciate that the varsity is concerned about me as an individual."

It was informative on how I see myself. And I would like to gain my self confidence.

I think its good to get to know the students and take an interest in their life. This questionnaire is useful for those who need support.

"The questionnaire is a great tool for self reflection and allows one to identify ones strengths, weaknesses and things that one may need assistance with. The questionnaire also looks at the student from a holistic point of view."

interesting

"I struggle to see the point, but I think it could be useful."

can help students make life easier for themselves.

if the university can offer help needed then I thought it was a perfect questionnaire

helpfull

It was relevant and necessary and comforting to know that the university is interested in my needs.

It should address the issue of classes being taught in purely Afrikaans for English students and tally up the percentage of demand for English as the language of instruction. otherwise its great.

good

what a great questionnaire if I may say so . I really think you can help others that are in great need of finding themselves and even understanding others. It was a pleasure filling it in . Have a nice day :)

i think the questionnaire is very valid in the sense that it'll help you in a positive aspect which can only help us make a success out of our time being here.Thank you for this actually

The information gathered can be helpful to many students.

"very thorough, insightful and beneficial."

"gets you thinking about your role and what's important to you, not only at the university but in society as well"

"I think this questionnaire was very thorough, if a little invasive; particularly with the question about HIV/AIDS. I hope it will be helpful to the university because reflecting on the past year was actually kind of helpful."

"I think the questionnaire will help the university help it's students, so I think the questionnaire is a good thing."

"Lengthy, but worthwhile if it helps students receive the help they need."

I think it is a very good way in helping students at this university.

It is long but neccesary

Very effective. I believe this will show a well informed basis of students at the university and will accommodate the needs of all the students attending.

\I think its amazing that the university is taking interest in the students in wanting to help them.

The questions and answers were set out nicely. I feel the choices were as accurate as it could get.

I enjoyed answering the questions. I hope the information provided is beneficial to the university.

good

Helpful

Helpful.

Very thorough and covers relevant and important questions not always asked.

Thank you very much

questionaires like this have there place. but it is important to also look at the person and not just the dots he clicked on.

In my opinion I agree with the questionnaire. It will provide the university with much needed information about their students.

"I think it is good as it provides insight into the students, however I do not necessarily seek help for everything I clicked"

"although helpful that its importance can be seen, it feels slightly invasive"

"Very clever idea and initiative. I'm pretty sure I won't need any help though, but I am sure there are other students out there that do. so good on yah maties. thanks"

"It was actually helpful in determining where I am doing well and where I am struggling. My biggest challenges seem to be financial, and in effective time management. Thank you for your concern with individual students."

the questionnaire is very thorough and helpful

I believe it will be of great importance!

I think the questionnaire is a brilliant idea to find out more about the students and to be able to distinguish which students need assistance and which don't

I feel as though this questionnaire would open the doors for me that I could not allow to be opened (emotionally speaking). Managing my anxiety and stress and worries about finance is of somewhat a problem.

Effective. Easy

"It was very good and thorough. However, it should have been the first thing/activity we did during this computer information session and not the last. Tis is because people are not giving it as much thought as it needs because they want to rush off elsewhere.Had it occurred first, before the computer systems orientation, it would have been more effective."

Very well constructed questionnaire allowing me to identify for myself which things I need to work on in order to achieve academic and lifestyle success.

Questions were relevant to first year situations.

I imagine that it can be a very effective way of identifying individuals who require assistance.

It was great. Got me thinking about how view myself and my future

"It is just amazing the great lengths the university goes to to help and supports its students, ensuring that everyone has the appropriate material at their disposal to help them succeed. I commend the questionnaire and feel it will be of immense help to my studies. It is simply amazing! :) "

The questionnaire is thorough and thought provoking.

It was really helpful. It even helped me reflect on my life as I'm sitting here in the Humarga. I have no problem helping out with research for Stellenbosch University. I enjoyed the session and all the extra help that is offered at the university. Thank you.

it is very long.

It is of use.

good selection/range of options of answers very detailed good/important questions

this is the best questionnaire that I have ever done.

It is a good way of finding out exactly how all the students can be helped in order to perform to the best of their ability.

"Questions made one think of themselves and the person they are. Judging from my answers, I know now where my flaws are and it will help to improve my studies in the future, as well as other needs."

helpful

"It was quite long. Some questions were asked with unnecessarily big words which meant I had to read the question again. They weren't straight forward. I appreciated some questions for instance the questions on financial support because it is a concern for me as my mother is a single parent who is supporting 2 kids with their tertiary funds. Hopefully, something can be done because it does concern me."

"It is very long, however they are relevant questions."

"it is very long, but seems to be a great platform for the university to gather statistics."

It is a good indicator to determining the specific need or requirements of students.

"The questionnaire proved to be helpful and exposed elements and themes that could be of use later on, it also taught me more about myslef"

"I think its very good, and if the information in the questionnaire is kept confidential and its being used to academically help the student, then that's even better."

It is useful for the university to know what support systems each learner requires

"I feel that it is very helpful in making me succeed to the best of my abilities in my studies,by letting the University get to know me better."

It is very good that the university are engaging with students in this way. This shows care and that the university do actually want their students to be successful.

Too long

I think it is very reassuring that the university take into account the needs and stand points of the pupils beforehand so that they can help them grow into successful students.

I think it is a helpful questionnaire and is a good source in gathering information on students that enquire help in some or other way.

It was alright I guess but they actually do get extra help for us when needed.

"The questionnaire will offer a great deal of help to the University, but there are a few questions that are vague or not even in the questionnaire. Add questions regarding commuting and parking. It would be nice to see what the statistics are concerning parking in the area, especially with regard to those who have long distances to travel to and from the University."

Good idea!

"It was fair ,some questions did seem irrelevant to my life as a student though"

good

confusing in some sections

It can only benefit us as new students.

I think it will help the varsity improve there academic facilities.

it was interesting and informative.

it is very self-informative :)

it made one really think about themselves and their year ahead

I doubt it will help but it was good to feel like some thing makes you less like just a number at uni. I don't think my parents grades effect mine.

the questionnaire is packaged in such a way the an individual can do self-introspection.

The questions were slightly useless

I felt that this questionnaire was important and I commend the university for the extra mile that they go with their student support.

It is a bit too long

Well thought out questions that can more or less describe the student answering and find out more than the usual without any fuss.

Helpfull

"Good questionnaire,very relevant,however some faculty members may not be happy with some of the answers other students may have given. Questionaire does not need much structural change but could actually ask more personal questions if needed."

Its long but if this questioner is used correctly to assit student then its great!

"long, but necessary and important."

Very detailed and well thought out. It will give a good idea of what the students are capable of.

The questionnaire is professional and I would like to see the results of my test to better understand myself. The team who put together the questionnaire did a good job of evaluating all aspects of student life.

It asked me relative questions to evaluate myself once more and be proud of the person I am today!

It is an excellent way to find out more information about students

Particularly helpful and will be useful as research for outsiders to view

Very helpful. Lets you evaluate things about yourself that you would not otherwise even think about.

I found this questionnaire quite mutually beneficial: I learned more about myself during the process of answering most of these questions and more on what I could potentially do to better my life for example.

it is good

It's too long and the questions are a bit irrelevant.

questions are slightly irrelivant

they are good

The questionare is of great help for people to evaluate their well being and recognize the focal areas and where they need to get help.

A questionnaire like this also makes a students think about himself, which helps to het to know himslef better! In conclusion i think its a good idea!"

It really made me think. I questioned myself and my purpose and I think I may have gotten some answers I have been looking for as well.

Seems insightful and like the university really wants to help

the questionnaire is quite simply and easily understandable.

The questionnaire was very detailed and I think it will be very helpful to me once the university goes through the data and understands what each person needs or wants in life.

"The questionnaire was rather long, but I think that it will benefit the University and its students in the future as it provides a better understanding on the University's side, therefore guiding the University in terms of making productive changes that will benefit the students emotionally and academically. It also gives the University an insight into the financial and domestic situation of most of its students, again allowing changes that need to be made and help that needs to be given out to be made."

It requires one to think.

"There are some questions I found where not relevant in academic success, also university is of different standard than high school so what we did then has very little application to what we will do now. "

The questionnaire asks relevant questions regarding the life of student social and academically Thank you

It seems very personal and unnecessary.

I liked that the questionnaire covered various fields of the student life and are willing to help you according to your answers

Top class

Very important. The questions were well asked.

I think it is important to answer these questions to create a deeper understanding of each student

A great questionanaire

I think that this will give the university information about students that are studying here. If there are any problems that the university should be concerned about.

Easy

It is a good questionnaire with reasonable and fair questions that I believe will help get a better understanding about me personally.

It's an imperative questionnaire which I believe the University should pay attention to by analysing it and undergoing necessary procedures to adhere to students' needs.

I liked this because I highly believe that I will get help.I see that you guys truly care for us.

"Very deep and concerning. Made me realize that as students we are not just a number. ie: I am not just SU Number 19045778, but an individual with emotions and feelings and I feel content knowing that the University takes that into consideration. This questionnaire is brilliant!"

It is easy to complete and thought provoking

"I think it's a good way for the university to find out info from students , to help students if they ever find them selves having difficulty during their time at university."

I think this is a very important questionnaire that shows that this university cares about its students. I am satisfied that it covers pretty much everything that would provide essential help for me during my study here.

Most parts of the questionnaire was quite basic. It really made one think about their purpose in university and in life as well through the academic questions that were asked. I believe the questionnaire should be of good use.

"The questionnaire addressed all aspects of student life, and it made the student evaluate his/her life to answer the questions thus causing them to reach a conclusion of the life they're living"

"The questionnaire provides a detailed overview, as too what we as first year students need inorder to survive within the daily life of society. Overall, it is a great of communicating with the students and showing that the university supports the student upon whatever journey we as students embark on. "

What I expected.

"It was a good, concise questionnaire. it touched on all aspects of university life and of student's requirements to succeed."

Some of the questions are not necessary for this questionnaire.

It is useful.

"The questionnaire is very helpful, but at the same time some of the questions need to be phrased in a way that offers more interaction so that students can express their thoughts clearly. However, it is understood that an administration issue would arise in terms of finalising results. Thank you!"

This questionnaire is important for the welfare of each individual student in order for them to gain from their experience at Stellenbosch University.

The questionnaire directly addresses the Important queries and problems many first years tend to worry about. I personally feel that these are the questions that I need to be asked as well as answered for me at the same time. I would really love for them to be answered and feedback to be given on solving them! Thank you.

It is very helpful not only to me but to all the unique students of this University

I believe the questionnaire is a suitable way to discern what kind of help the Universities students need.

This questionnaire has helped me realise the amount of help and support I can receive when I need it at Stellenbosch University.

It is a great idea!

Very well set up.

I think the questionnaire is an excellent way for students to actually give thought to various important things which we either tend to avoid or merely forget about.. it puts matters in perspective. The questionnaire also provides students with an opportunity to anonymously seek help where it is needed.

It is a helpful questionnaire that helps one to reflect on one's wellbeing.

I found the experience of reviewing my opinions and thoughts refreshing and helpful.

"It was a pleasure to answer, and I am without a doubt that it will not only benefit my own wellbeing, but also that of other students to come to Stellenbosch university. "

the questionnaire was quite helpful. I would really appreciate it if the university offered me some help on issues included in it.

it is really helpful and I hope I will be getting help because I am pretty uncertain about my self but thank you this is really helpful for new students like us from far away from home who just need clarity of the new environment that they are in.

The questions were well structured and covered a large range of areas regarding student life and the wellbeing of an individual student.

it is fair and will help students in most of the problems they come across

This questionnaire is helpful because it gives the university a better understanding of who the student is and what they are dealing with. It is a constructive way to help the student if help is needed.

"I feel that these are the questions that anyone would love to be asked, as they allow one to know themselves better. "

Great idea!

I believe the questionnaire helps you understand more about yourself and the issues that society faces on the regular bases

I think it would definitely benefit me and I am excited to see how it would enhance my academic success.

This questionnaire is very beneficial as it will provide the university with specific information about students as individuals.

The questionnaire was easy to understand and helpful in a way that you get to know yourself better for example what your preferences are.

"I think it is very important because it gives the university important information about the students, so I really think this is a very good idea."

The questionnaire it is really of great benefit to students as it can help the university to know what kind of help to offer to students.The questionnaire is effective.

The the questionnaire is great

It draws self awareness and that makes it good.

I believe this questionnaire is a brilliant way to help the university to identify learners who are in need and are not confident or knowledgeable enough to know how or what they can do to raise their concerns about their studies.

It shows that the university makes an effort to support the success of students.

I think that it is a well rounded and informative questionnaire that could help the university move forward with the opinions of its students

Very appropriate and helpful in terms of self assessment. Very detailed and well put together. The questions cover a broad range of topics and will be able to benefit the University.

It is necessary to help students.

the questionnaire asked some evaluating questions about ones self and it help get a feel of what I want out of my university journey.

I think it is great that the university is creating a personal element to all first years.

too long

"it is personal, but that is needed to pave for connection."

"I believe that the questionnaire is too vague and many of the questions answers sound the same. in short, it needs to be more specific."

I appreciate the fact that the university want to assist every learner in their studies.

I think is of great help

everything is extremely good.

"I think this questionnaire fuels valid thoughts. Thoughts that can enable you to change and better yourself academically, socially and emotionally. The undertones of the questionnaire ultimately promote a ""balanced life."" The questionnaire(and the university) understands and endorses South African political and racial dynamics."

"I don't see how this is important right now. This questionnaire is concise, but how relevant is it to my studies at this university? A full explanation of why we have to do this would be appreciated. If it does help us current students, continue with it for all new students. The layout was easy to understand and use."

"Interesting, I am sure it can really benefit some people. Thanks for caring!"

This questionnaire has helped me to realise that I need to change some important lifestyle choices and that I am capable of being successful only if I make a strong attempt at achieving my goals.

"As a person who has just completed it, it helps me see how I view myself and reflect on a few things. It also helps me see the areas which I need to work on."

"The questionary was somehow surprising and unexpected, because I am not used to such things from my country. But I think it is a good initiative and it could be really helpful."

I think that this questionnaire is a good idea in terms of offering assistance to students who need it. I hope that the university will make use of this questionnaire and proved students with the relevant information to give them piece of mind throughout their academic career.

I think this test well be helpful to both the university and the students. This test will allow the university to provide the necessary assistance to students and give them piece of mind with regard to their studies.

Well set up. May help students to reflect on why they have chosen to attend university and prepare themselves for the future.

It is a n excellent questionnaire that helps you understand more about yourselves and reflects on what needs o be improved.

It is an appropriate questionnaire. It is very informative.

Too long.

"I'm not certain if it will help me in the short term, but I'm sure, or at least hope, that by doing it it helps someone in the long term. I think it is a good idea."

It's great that the university is taking the time to get to know their students and ask them for issues plaguing them.

the questionnaire really lets you think about why you here

"I found the questionnaire interesting and I am curious to hear what recommendations, if any, the university will make regarding my answers."

"It's a very good questionnaire, I just didn't understand question 27"

Good.

Very helpful with regards to self-reflection

It is long but itis good for self-reflection

"Although it may seem tedious and a bit time consuming, I do believe that this will give the university information on how to help their students better."

These questions are absolutely necessary to ask every person and I am happy to answer them. Either for specific and good use or just to bring me to a certain realisation of where I am in my life and bring me to an awareness of my actions.

I support its content and relevance

"I find it to be somewhat helpful, only of the information that I have put in will seriously be taken into account to help me achieve higher standards of learning. very much helpful in terms of self-recognition and self-awareness "

the questionnaire was very helpful

well thought off and relevant
