National College Health Assessment
What is NCHA?
The National College Health Assessment (NCHA) is a national research survey organized by the American College Health Association to assist college health service providers, health educators, counselors, and administrators in collecting data about their students' habits, behaviors, and perceptions on prevalent health topics.
Questions on the NCHA survey cover the following topics:
- demographics/personal profile
- alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use
- weight, nutrition, and exercise
- mental health
- personal safety and violence
Is the survey confidential?
The survey is completely voluntary and confidential! So feel free to give us your honest feedback! The survey results will be reported in aggregate form only, and you will not be identified.
Why is it important that I fill out the survey?
The NCHA 2021 Fall launch is a survey designed to assess student health behaviors to provide better support for Baylor University students. The information collected from this survey will be used to develop wellness programs and services for Baylor University. More importantly, they show us what we’re doing right and what we need to improve upon.
