More than 15,000 full-time undergraduates were asked how strongly they agreed that their university offered 21 different provisions, including 鈥渉igh quality staff/lectures鈥, 鈥済ood extracurricular activities鈥 and 鈥済ood support and welfare鈥.

The most improved institution this year is Southampton Solent University, which climbed 36 places from last year to reach joint 54th position.

At the bottom of the table, London universities occupy 12 of the last 20 places, largely due to low scores for accommodation and community feeling on campus.

All eligible universities with more than 50 student respondents are included in the rankings tables below.
