Please complete the online Registration by Friday, December 12, 2025<\/strong> which is available at cusc-ccreu.ca<\/a> “Taking Part”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually late registrations can be accommodated but institutions that registered by this date will have priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The table below presents a schedule that can be modified, within limits, to accommodate participating institutions. We strongly encourage you to start the survey at your institution as soon as possible in the New Year. The earliest the survey can be started is Monday, January 5, 2026<\/strong>; the latest the survey can be started is Monday, March 23, 2026<\/strong>. The survey closes for all institutions on Sunday, April 12, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can change the date when the survey starts at your institution after you have completed the Registration but other institutions that have previously chosen the same start date will have priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ensure that the start date you have chosen does not coincide with events at your institution such as winter\/ spring break (study week), exams and other surveys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When registering online, each institution can specify when their survey closes. CUSC-CCREU advises leaving the survey open until the last day, Sunday, April 12, 2026<\/strong>. The survey end date may be extended one week in exceptional circumstances, if approved by the CUSC-CCREU Board. PRA will provide a website link that will show the daily number of responses for each institution to assist in deciding whether to extend your survey end date or not (see Response tracking<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n
