Each year, thousands of prospective university students and their parents turn to Ѳ’s annual University Rankings for information to help them select a university that suits their needs.
The Ѳ’s University Rankings is a comprehensive publication that classifies each Canadian university on a broad range of criteria with responses and data gathered from two annual surveys. The Canadian news magazine conducts the surveys to gather the opinions of university faculty and senior administrators, undergraduate students and businesspeople from across Canada. The rankings are the most influential within Canada for students, employers and others considering Canadian universities.
The 2023 Reputational Survey is now available for qualified faculty and senior administrators to complete and will be open until September 2022. The rankings factor in responses from the 2023 Student Survey, which will also be available until September 2022. It polls undergraduate students about their university experience and satisfaction with teaching and learning, mental health services, sexual violence prevention, academic advising, student and residence life.
