What NABA students say

The questionnaire asked students to rate every aspect of life at the Academy on a scale of 1 to 10. The percentages below show, for each item, the proportion of students who gave a positive assessment, meaning a score of 6 or above. The figures are calculated at Academy level, based on the 2,294 questionnaires collected across the Milan and Rome campuses. The charts present a summary of the survey’s main findings; they do not include the complete set of questionnaire items.

Reading the data makes it possible to observe the strengths recognised by students and, at the same time, the areas where NABA is committed to working towards improvement.

87% of students say they are satisfied with their experience at NABA: a result shared by the Milan and Rome campuses and supported by positive assessments of teaching, services and life at the Academy.

The campus facilities receive highly positive assessments. 95% of students consider the Campus a safe place and 93% appreciate its location and ease of access by public transport. The specialist labs, where much of the practical coursework takes place, achieve an overall satisfaction rate of 87%.

Teaching is one of the aspects students appreciate most. 92% value the presence of active industry professionals in the classroom and 89% recognise the availability of lecturers for clarification and further explanation. Overall satisfaction with students’ own Programme reaches 88%.

The NABA journey continues beyond the classroom too. 89% of students rate the support received for scholarships positively, while 88% appreciate the way the Academy fosters a sense of community and belonging.

The administrative services record some of the highest percentages in the entire survey. 92% of students say they are satisfied with the Student Administration Office overall. The relationship with the Academy proves convincing from the very first contact: 92% rate the attention received from staff during enrolment positively, and 90% the orientation service that supports the choice of course.

The overall picture of student satisfaction is very positive. As seen above, for 87% the experience at NABA matched their initial expectations, and 88% say they are satisfied with the preparation gained during their studies. The sense of belonging to the NABA community also achieves a solid result, with 81% positive assessments.

Even within a broadly positive picture, some items show lower percentages and therefore remain areas where NABA is committed to working towards improvement.
