University of North Carolina ranked in top 50 globally among universities

Here is where the University of North Carolina ranks among all universities globally.

The University of North Carolina is getting ready for another school year to start later this Summer as students will head back to campus to begin or continue their college journey.

The prestigious university located in Chapel Hill has a rich history of not only athletics but academics as well. And the latest global rankings from the U.S. News & World Report prove that.

The latest global university rankings are officially out with the University of North Carolina checking in at No. 47 globally. They are the fourth-ranked Atlantic Coast Conference school in the rankings behind Stanford (No. 3), Cal-Berkeley (No. 5) and Duke (No. 26).

North Carolina earned a score of 76.7 globally by the publication and enrollment was listed at 30,921 for the most updated rankings for 2024-25.

Being ranked high in these rankings isn’t anything new for the university as they have consistently found themselves in the top 40 or so during the United States rankings that are released yearly as well. It’s an impressive achievement for UNC and one that they should be proud of moving forward.
