The world's top two universities are now in the UK not the US

The University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge have taken the top two places in the 2018 Times Higher Education World University Rankings for the first time in the rankings' 13-year history.

It’s the first time that the US has not had a university in first or second place. However, despite small movements at the very top of the table where Cambridge leapfrogged the California Institute of Technology and Stanford University to claim second place, the top 10 universities have held pretty firm. Only Berkeley, equal 10th last year, has departed to be replaced by the University of Pennsylvania.

You can access the full top 1,000 here​.

If you look at just the top 200 universities (equivalent to roughly the top 1% of higher education institutions in the world), then the US, even with missing out on the top two spots, has comfortably the highest number of representatives. In fact, with 62 universities in this elite group, it has double the number of the next most represented nation, the UK with 31.

However, despite the US's domination in terms of overall numbers, there are signs that its grip on the table is slipping. This year, 59 of those 61 US institutions in the top 200 faced a drop in their research income per academic - and the future of federal research funding under the Trump administration is in doubt. Twenty-nine of the US' top 200 representatives dropped down the table when compared to last year.

The US is not the only country facing potential funding challenges. The UK's position within the EU research community - a key source of funding, particularly through flagship programmes such as Horizon 2020 - is at risk following the Brexit vote. Australia may suffer in future years if its government goes ahead with plans to cut funding by 2.5%, which would mean a AUS$2.8 billion fall in income across the higher education sector.

It is universities in Asia that could benefit from the uncertainty and, once again, the 2018 World University Rankings provide evidence of the continent's rise - particularly in the East.

Mainland China has acquired three more universities in the elite top 200 thee year and is now the joint 6th, most-represented nation. Peking University has risen two places to joint 27th in the rankings, putting it on a par with New York University and the University of Edinburgh. Tsinghua University, meanwhile, has climbed five places to 30th, overtaking the likes of the University of Melbourne and the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.

Asia’s top university, the National University of Singapore, has risen two places to joint 22nd. This means there are now three Asian universities in the top 30 for the first time under the current methodology.​

Jamb advised it's Candidate to re-upload their O' level result

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board
( JAMB ) says it will close the Direct Entry e-
Registration portal on Sept.15.
Dr Fabian Benjamin, the Head of Media and
Information of the board, said this in an
interview with the News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) in Abuja on Friday.
Benjamin advised candidates yet to register to
do so before the deadline, saying that there
might be no postponement of the deadline.
He also advised JAMB candidates to re-upload
their ‘O’ level results in the new portal as the
previous portal did not allow for the capturing
of candidates level of grades.
He also said that candidates should use the
approved Computer Based Test (CBT) Centres
for the exercise.
According to him, the new portal has provided
a platform for the detailed category of the
West African Examination Result ( WAEC ) of
candidates for proper placement.
“The first platform that was used for the
exercise does not create room for the
capturing of the levels of grade such as C4,
C5, C6, B1, B2, B3 and A1.
“ You know in some schools, all these ‘O’ level
grades are being considered.
“For example, if you have B1 and another one
has B3 and there is no room for separation in
the platform schools may not be able to
ascertain the level of grades some schools will
consider the O’ level grades.
“And the first platform just stated A, B, C, so
with this new platform, there will be room for
the download of the level of grades. Somebody
who has B1 will stand a better chance than the
person with B3.
“So, we use this new platform to capture all
those detailed categories of WAEC result so
that no grade of result will be left uploaded.’’
Benjamin, however, said that any candidate
who felt that what he or she uploaded before
was enough might not bother.
