Algonquin College students are giving their school an A-.

2015 Key Performance Indicator (KPI) data, released today by Colleges Ontario, has Algonquin College leading all large Ontario colleges in the student satisfaction metric. The College’s score of 80.2 also beat the provincial average of 76.2 by a wide margin.

“We are pleased with this result, which reaffirms that we are on the right track to fulfilling our mission of transforming students’ hopes and dreams into lifelong success”, says Cheryl Jensen, President, Algonquin College. “With that said, we know we can build on that A-. My commitment to Algonquin College students is that we will work hard to keep our grades up.”

The KPI data is collected from students through a mandatory in-class annual survey each February. Students are asked to rate their satisfaction with their program outcomes, the quality of learning experiences, the quality of services, the quality of facilities and resources, and their overall satisfaction – where Algonquin placed first among large colleges for the fifth straight year.

Please note Colleges Ontario discourages direct college-to-college comparisons because college size, local employment conditions, program mix and graduate demographics are different for each market.
