International students' perceptions of the Naval Postgraduate School

Abstract

International students' perceptions of the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) were ascertained by a survey conducted among current and former international students. A statistical analysis was conducted to evaluate the responses and to try to find those variables which "best" explain academic satisfaction and general satisfaction with NPS. A majority of the survey population are (were) satisfied with their stay at NPS and feel (felt) that their careers are going to be positively affected by their stay here. Significant departures from the general models were noted when analyzed separately by service, rank, field of service, and geographic region.
