7 Worst Universities in Canada

Canada despite having one of the best educational system and being the hub of post secondary institution, some of her universities are not highly ranked as others which is why we compiled the list of 7 worst universities in Canada. This universities being among the lowest doesn’t mean they’re useless but due to that their ranking by different Canadian agencies is too poor,  I know many persons who are interested in this universities may ask the question listed below.

How are Canadian Universities Ranked? 

Many platform’s are known to rank universities across the world not only in Canada,  the different platform’s that used in ranking universities are listed below US News & World Report Ranking, Macleans, World University Rankings, The Higher Education (THE), QS World University Ranking, and Academic Ranking of World Universities,  the following factors are considered when universities are being ranked, number of highly cited papers published by the university, quality of programs offered, publications, global research and reputation. 

Some universities make it best in one or two of this areas but are still among the least, which still helps in proving they’re not worthless at all
