University Life

George Mason University’s Division of University Life provides services and resources to help students succeed and offers activities that instill a sense of belonging and Mason pride. University Life Assessment and Planning supports the division in student affairs assessment, research, and data analysis. Resources created by Assessment and Planning are available to members of the University Life team on this page.

 

As part of the annual assessment process, all student-serving units within University Life are asked to provide headcounts of unique students that attended programs, met with staff, or otherwise interacted with the unit. These “students served metrics” are compiled quarterly and visualized within this report.
