Introduction

What are the most popular Canadian Universities on X (formerly Twitter)? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2024 X University Ranking of all Canadian higher-education institutions on X meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate Canadian higher education-related organization in each country
offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

The aim of the uniRank X University Ranking is to offer an approximate popularity index for each Canadian university on the X social media platform, based on the total number of followers. Read also our article about the importance of Social Media for Universities and prospective students.
