Surveys, Questions, and Forms serve similar, but distinct purposes for chapter operations. All three tools can be found in the Communicate section and we have detailed knowledge base articles for each here. 


These features can replace: 


Questions: Used to pose a single question to specific groups and ALL leaders can see the results.  Examples include “Would you be willing to participate in takeover Tuesday on Instagram?”  or “Are you going abroad next semester?”

  • Ask only 1 question at a time

  • Summary and individual results

  • To groups only

  • Can answer on the MCR mobile app

  • Can specify a due date

  • All leaders can see replies, can’t specify individuals

  • Can export both summary and individual results


Surveys:  Used to ask single or multiple questions to specific groups. You can include skip logic and you can specify who can see the results. This is a great option for voting, gauging interest in committees, or ranking options such as big/little selection. 

  • Ask multiple questions at a time

  • Drop down and rating type of questions in addition to questions

  • Can apply skip logic

  • Summary and individual results

  • Can answer on the MCR mobile app

  • Can specify a due date

  • Can specify who views the results

  • Can export both summary and individual results


Forms: Allows leaders to replace paper forms with a digital signature sent to specific groups. This is a great option for everything from an athletic participant waiver, a suggestion form to check-request form. 

  • Ask multiple questions at a time

  • Individual results only

  • Can act as an electronic signature

  • Not able to answer on the mobile app

  • Can specify a due date

  • Can be anonymous

  • Results can only be viewed by position noted 

  • Can export individual results


The table below is an easy way to view a snapshot of how each of these tools can be used and the most appropriate option for different types of chapter activity.
