Warwick has been ranked in eighth place by the Complete University Guide 2018, coming as the leading university in the West Midlands.

The University has maintained its record for never having been placed outside of the top ten universities amongst these rankings.

Meanwhile, Cambridge ranked in first place, with Oxford falling in second place, for the seventh and fourth years respectively.

St Andrews also features on the list, moving up to third place, while University College London has been ranked at seventh with Loughborough falling to tenth place.
