Our reviewers rate many categories: accommodation, course quality, graduate careers, and student social life — we also ask students if they would recommend their university to a friend.

Our universities are also grouped by their respective regions; England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Within their rankings, you can see which universities offer a better course quality, accommodation or a more welcoming social setting for students.
