National College Health Assessment (NCHA II)

The National College Health Assessment II (NCHA-II) is a national research survey organized by the American College Health Association (ACHA) to assist college health service providers, health educators, counselors, and administrators in collecting data about their students' habits, behaviors, and perceptions on the most prevalent health topics. The survey was originally developed and administered in the U.S. before it was adopted in Canada.

A revised survey, the NCHA-II has been in use since fall 2008. The survey is administered every three years at the University of Waterloo and is coordinated through Campus Wellness. Waterloo has participated in the survey since 2013.
