Hi [Name],
I am writing again to ask you to please take a few minutes to tell us about your experiences at UNH by completing the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). We only have the opportunity to participate in the NSSE periodically, so your response at this time is important.
We know your time is valuable, so we’re offering some great incentives for you to complete the survey: the first 100 students to complete the survey will receive a $20 Amazon gift card, and all students who complete the survey by April 15th will be entered into a drawing to win one of two $250 Amazon gift cards! Based on last year’s survey response rate, your chance of winning one of the Amazon gift cards is 1 out of 592.
