Multi-Institutional Study of Leadership (MSL)

The MSL is a national survey instrument that examines the impact of college involvement on student leadership development. Rutgers University–New Brunswick was one of 73 colleges and universities to administer the MSL in 2021 with participation from 673 of our undergraduate students. The survey asked students about their experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. The information below is provided to communicate the survey findings and connect you with the appropriate resources to ensure all students feel the support necessary to navigate the college experience.
