Introduction

What are the most popular Ugandan Universities on X (formerly Twitter)? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2025 X University Ranking of all Ugandan higher-education institutions on X meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate higher education-related organization in Uganda
offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
