University of Chichester in the UK's top 10 for overall student satisfaction for second year running


The Times Good University Guide 2011 published today (27th May 2010) has ranked the University of Chichester as joint 9th in the UK for overall student satisfaction – making the top 10 for the second consecutive year.

The Guide is identified by a government-funded review as the most influential of its type and is seen as an essential and comprehensive tool for students and parents at home and abroad. It ranks each HE institutions according to eight criteria including student satisfaction, entry standards, completion rates, staff/student ratio and graduate prospects.
For the second year running Chichester has also been rated as one of the top modern universities in the country.* Chichester was ranked 53rd overall out of 113 UK universities in the Guide’s League Table, up 6 places on last year.

University of Chichester Acting Vice-Chancellor Professor Clive Behagg, welcomed the results and said: “It is fantastic news that we have risen up the table and for the second year running we are placed in the top 10 of all universities in the country for overall student satisfaction. Ensuring our students get the best experience possible whilst studying here is very important to us and we must also acknowledge the key role that staff have played in achieving this result, which is clearly reflected in this Guide. Once again it consolidates Chichester's position as one of the UK's leading modern universities."
