TIME is launching its inaugural ranking of the world’s best universities in collaboration with Statista, a well-known international provider of market and consumer data and rankings. This new ranking will recognize leading global universities based on their academic quality, student success, and the overall learning environment they provide.
As part of the research process, TIME and Statista are currently accepting data submissions from universities. Submitting data ensures consideration for inclusion in the ranking but does not guarantee a spot on the final list. The final ranking will also include institutions that do not submit data.
The submission deadline is July 18, 2025.
