Best University Awards 2015

In August 2014, 61,300 students were accepted through clearing and even more are expected this year. With such a short amount of time to make one of life’s biggest decisions, we’ve strived to make that decision a little easier.

As students receive their A level results, we are dishing out specific awards to Universities who have excelled at giving students the best experience.

How did we pick the winners?

We didn't.

4,986 StudentCrowd members picked the winners by rating the key criteria of their student experience. We crunched this data to give an average rating per area - campus, career services, clubs & societies, halls, students union and wifi. To qualify for an award, an institution must have received at least 25 reviews.

Any University that has achieved one of these awards deserves great credit for consistently impressing students to merit 5 star ratings.
