The CIRP Freshman Survey at Farmingdale State College
Dear Farmingdale Student:
In a few days you will receive an email invitation to participate in an online student
survey. Farmingdale State College is participating in the CIRP Freshman Survey, a
national survey for incoming students developed by the Cooperative Institutional Research
Program (CIRP) at the Higher Education Research Institute at UCLA. With the results
from this survey, we can gain insight into your high school experiences and your expectations
and concerns about college so that we can continue to develop academic and co-curricular
programming to meet your needs.
We are asking you to support this initiative by completing the CIRP Freshman Survey.
You will receive an email from HERI Administration (surveys@heri-surveys.cresst.org). The survey will be open from August 26 through October 3, 2025, and will take approximately
25 minutes to complete. Your responses are confidential.
Thank you in advance for your time in supporting this important endeavor. If you have
any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Patricia Lind-Gonzalez in the Office
of Institutional Research & Effectiveness at oir@farmingdale.edu.
