Windsor earned high marks for aesthetics and useable student space, as well as environmental friendliness, a mix of historic and modern architecture as well as temperate climate.

The University of British Columbia grabbed the top spot for it’s beautiful campus surrounded “by water views and mountainscapes,” the website said.

The Windsor university was recognized for its location on an international border, giving students access to both the big-city advantages of Detroit as well as Windsor’s safe, walkable neighbourhoods.

“For the thousands of students who take on the weighty task of choosing a university, the decision often comes down to more than just the school’s reputation and cost. Natural and architectural aesthetics are also considered, and rightly so,” the website said.

St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, N.S. came No. 21 and University of Montreal ranked behind University of Windsor.
