Maclean’s has released its 2027 University Rankings and Mount Allison has once again been ranked #1 in Canada in its category!

Maclean’s has introduced a new methodology and categories this year. Previously, universities were grouped by type — Medical Doctoral, Comprehensive, and Primarily Undergraduate. They are now grouped by full-time student population size: Large (30,000+), Mid-Size (10,000–30,000), and Small (Under 10,000).

This means Mount Allison is now being compared with institutions with different full-time student populations and profiles, including universities with up to 10,000 full-time students. Mount Allison’s current student population is just over 2,400.

Mount Allison has been ranked #1 in the Small University category! The University has ranked #1 in the previous primarily undergraduate category more times than any other university (26 out of 35 years).
