Best Student Cities

A study by London based Quacquarelli Symonds(QS) listed the best cities for students(local as well as foreign) to have their education and career consultancy. The qualifying criteria for cities are population more than 250,000 and at least two universities ranked in QS World university listing.I believe that none of the Indian cities have 2 universities listed in QS listings.So none of Indian cities qualified,pathetic.Good to see Singapore as best Asian cities for students.

Here are the top 20 cities:

Do not disheartened by the mere rankings. Those are based on the facilities, methodology and the sophistication of the technology those universities have, end of the day what matters is the quality of the people coming out of the universities. Do note all those coming out with flying colours from the top ranking Uni's may not necessarily Wise and obliviously all the wise people in the world may not be highly paid.
