The University Rankings Rankings
Who is the crème de la crème of university league tables?
Over 1,700 votes were cast through a series of highly accurate Twitter polls that asked the question: Which university ranking would you recommend to friends or family?
After four heats, our finalists battled it out tête à tête.
Please note, the top four’s votes are a tally from over two rounds, whereas all the others are from one round of votes, so that’s a bit misleading. But that’s league tables for you.
