Honestly, the only reason I'm going to Queen's is because I live in Kingston. Half the price for a good school = win

Shhhh, you're not in on the McGill vs. Queens rivalry. It's baseless and hyperbolic!

Except for McGill at #21...

And Toronto at #37...

I guess that's what you get with a UBC education.

Those are last year's rankings. I haven't found all of this year's, but the top 20 are listed here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4379738.stm . My university moved up from 5th to 4th :D

Ooh, you're Oxford? Sweet deal! We visited there when I was in England 3 years ago. So gorgeous! And most of my university's architecture is modeled off yours...as well as our college system. Mine moved up from 8th to 7th this year :).
