## [MCRP Exit Survey](/mcrp-exit-survey) This important survey gives graduating MCRP students a chance to relay their experience in the program as well as plans for the future. With these data and your more qualitative thoughts, SCARP can: - Improve the program - Satisfy accreditation requirements - Answer questions for future students - Improve your resources as alumni Your responses in this survey will be **confidential**. Results will be aggregated (ie. we're collecting summary stats, not profiles of individuals) and you will not be identified in any reports. None of these questions imply that any post-graduation journey is more valid or more successful than any other. MCRP can lead to diverse career paths each with different timelines and challenges.
