Introduction
What are the top universities in the US metropolis of Chicago? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2025 uniRank University Ranking of higher education institutions in Chicago that meet the following uniRank selection criteria:
- being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate higher education-related organization in the United States
- offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees

uniRank aims to provide a non-academic League Table of the top Chicago Universities based on valid, unbiased and non-influenceable web metrics provided by independent web intelligence sources rather than data submitted by the Universities themselves.
