Central is pleased to announce its 2024 rankings in the Complete University Guide’s league tables, where it has ranked 2nd in the Arts, Drama, Music and Dance Institutions table. 

The Complete University Guide’s Arts, Drama, Music and Dance table ranks training institutions across the whole of the United Kingdom based on metrics which include entry requirements, student satisfaction, research and graduate destinations. The results draw on publicly available data from the Office for Students, the Scottish Funding Council, the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales, The Department for the Economy in Northern Ireland, the Research Excellence Framework and the Higher Education Statistics Agency. 

Central’s 2nd place ranking for 2024 was an improvement of two places on last year’s result – a testament to the hard work of all of Central’s students, staff and graduates over the past year.
