Empower
students
through
education
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students to share their experiences and help highlight the best universities worldwide.
It’s an open call to both students and institutions to support transparency in study choice and contribute to the overall quality of education.
Studyportals invites students to review their study programmes and reflect on their experiences of studying. By doing so, we aim to recognise outstanding educators and celebrate the universities that have achieved the highest levels of student satisfaction.
See below for the winners from past editions: 2023, 2021, and 2019.
