The purpose of this survey is to examine the socio-economic background of candidates seeking admission to NU. Data from this survey will help (1) assess the degree to which NU is attracting candidates from various socio-economic strata and (2) ensure diversity in the NU student body. This survey has been administered annually since 2019.
