StudentCrowd University Awards: What You Need to Know

Want to win? You need to be in.#
The StudentCrowd University Awards are based 100% on verified student reviews — no panels, no pay-to-play. Just real feedback from real students.
We put student experience and voice at the heart of everything. That means our awards are independent, unbiased, and built on what students actually think.
To qualify, a university needs at least 100 reviews across all three areas: University life, Courses, and Accommodation.
This helps us reflect the full student experience — not just a handpicked few.

Our latest awards launched in July 2025, make sure you check out the winners across all 11 categories.
Winning gets you noticed#
StudentCrowd Award winners don’t just celebrate quietly — they make headlines.
In the past two years, winning universities have been featured in The Tab, Time Out, Yahoo News, FE News, and a wide range of local and regional press. Our annual press releases get national pickup and shine a spotlight on the institutions students rate most highly.
Whether it’s a #1 ranking in Teaching Quality or a Top 10 finish overall, an award from StudentCrowd is a powerful way to show off your strengths — straight from the students themselves.

UCAS’s 2020 New Applicant Survey (above) reported that the second most important resource to decide which university to apply to was ‘Online reviews by other students’.
78% of respondents stated reviews were either ‘important’ or ‘extremely important’ to their university decision, second only to a university’s own website.
