The Manuel S. Enverga University Foundation (MSEUF) remains the Rank 1 university in Quezon Province and Rank 57 in the Philippines, according to the latest EduRank list of 100 best universities in the Philippines, Feb. 29, 2024.

EduRank and uniRank are both independent metric-based ranking organizations that rank the best universities in the world.

EduRank ranked the Top 100 universities in the Philippines based on research outputs, non-academic prominence, and alumni influence, which are determined by analyzing 500K citations received by 58.8K academic publications made by 229 universities from the Philippines, the popularity of 1,093 recognized alumni, and the largest reference database available.

On the other hand, uniRank™ asserts itself as the leading international higher education portal and search engine featuring reviews and rankings of over 13,900 officially recognized universities and colleges in 200 countries.

Before the latest rankings released by EduRank and uniRank, the MSEUF placed 98th and 87th respectively. The significant leap is expected to not only be maintained but potentially be improved in the future.
