 Umultirank designed for prospective students wondering where will work for them, not uni marketers in need of spinnable numbers.

Indeed, UMr rejects the premise of rankings,  “there’s no such thing as the best university in the world. What’s best depends on who you are, what you want from your student experience, and even what you want from life.”

But it still rates institutions by relevance, by selecting the ones that meet users’ choice of criteria. And it relies, like rankings, on institutional data, metrics and surveys.
