“On-campus housing plays a crucial role in shaping the student experience and contributing to academic success," stated Dr. Kelvin Rachell, Assistant Dean and Director of Housing and Residence Life at the University of North Georgia. "We collaborate closely with our faculty, staff, and property management partners, such as Corvias, to provide the highest level of service and value, ultimately supporting the best possible outcomes for our students."
Many students opt to live on-campus due to affordability and the convenience it provides. A recent multi-year study, of 75,000 students across 76 residential campuses, revealed that student engagement, retention, and feeling of belonging, were largely impacted by the on-campus living experience. For campus housing and residence life teams, which are often the highest touchpoints for first year and sophomore students, it is important to create engaging and welcoming environments.
By gathering resident feedback at move-in and upon work order completion, SatisFacts is one way that Corvias Property Management obtains feedback about the housing experience across its buildings. The nationally recognized SatisFacts Awards are measured through annual point-of-service surveys and recognize top property management companies and communities for delivering outstanding resident experiences. To qualify, award recipients must have a combined portfolio score of 4.25 out of 5 and meet other required criteria, like a minimum number of survey responses.
