Welcome to the Student Life Pulse Survey – we would like you to take part in this important survey about student life and your perceptions and experience of your students’ union, UEA(SU).
Don’t worry if you don’t know much about your Students’ Union – we’d still love to hear from you! The research is being conducted by Alterline on behalf of UEA(SU) to understand how the Students’ Union can best serve its students. Alterline will produce a report which will be shared with the SU to help develop and plan services for the future.
As a thank-you for taking part, you can choose to be entered into a prize draw for the chance to win 1 x £100, 2 x £50 or 5 x £20 cash prizes. The closing date for the prize draw will be midnight on the 10th March 2024 and the draw will take place on 12th March 2024. Winners will be chosen randomly by Alterline and contacted within three weeks of the draw date.
The survey can take around fifteen minutes to complete. If you have any questions about this research, please contact Alterline at
