UW-Madison Qualtrics - Service Eligibility and Requirements
There is no fee or registration required before a University affiliate can begin using Qualtrics Survey Hosting Service. There are, however, a few prerequisites to using the service, as described below.
Role Requirements
All users of Qualtrics must either be a student or a staff member with a valid, active appointment. Users with Special Authorization (such as retirees and Hospital Staff without a University Staff appointment) are not eligible for the system.
If you do not have a valid appointment and wish to use the system, please contact your local HR/Payroll division regarding your appointment type.
