Choosing your future university is not easy for many reasons. Thus, many students look to the rankings to make a slightly more informed choice. Not all the rankings on higher education are good, of course, but the Times Higher Education ranking can be trusted. In fact, this ranking focuses on knowledge, research funding and the school’s reputation. It does not take into account admission requirements, graduation rates, faculty rankings or former student salaries.
