National College Health Assessment (NCHA)

At Community Wellbeing, we are always looking for the most efficient and effective ways to serve the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ community. Collection and monitoring of reliable health and wellbeing data enables us to understand, first hand, the significant health priorities of various Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ populations and assist us to design and integrate impactful campus-wide wellbeing  priorities and initiatives.

Every three years, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Metropolitan partners with numerous other colleges and universities in Canada to conduct a comprehensive student health assessment.

Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ NCHA

The ACHA-NCHA II is an online survey examining students’ behaviours, perceptions, and habits about a variety of health and wellness topics. This survey is administered by the American College Health Association (ACHA).

Ethics approval was required and granted by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Metropolitan's Research Ethics Board.

The most recent assessment was conducted in Fall 2024.

The response proportion was 7% (n=1255).

18,000 Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Metropolitan students were randomly selected to participate in the assessment. The sole selection criterion is that student participants must be over the age of 18. Random selection allows for a sample that represents the different nationalities, genders, ages, academic levels, cultures, and family status that exists within Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.
