The World University Rank API delivers in-depth, up-to-date information on top universities worldwide, offering valuable insights into academic performance, reputation, and key institutional data. By aggregating data from trusted sources, the API simplifies access to global and regional university rankings—making it an essential tool for students, educators, researchers, and education service providers.
Users can retrieve detailed university profiles that include name, location, global and regional rankings, performance scores, enrollment figures, and faculty-to-student ratios. This goes beyond surface-level rankings, providing a comprehensive view of each institution’s scale, strengths, and academic impact—helping users assess universities based on factors like research output, academic reputation, and employer perception.

Each endpoint returns a list of the top 10 universities in a specified region, including their names and rankings. For the University Information endpoint, it provides detailed data about a specific university, including its global and regional rankings, enrollment numbers, and scores.
Key fields include "name" (university name), "rank" (ranking position), "country," "city," "rank_in_asia" (for Asia endpoint), "rank_in_global," "global_score," and "enrollment" (student numbers) for the University Information endpoint.
The response data is organized in JSON format. Each endpoint returns an array of objects, where each object contains university details. For example, the European University Rankings endpoint returns an array of universities with their names and ranks.
Each endpoint provides rankings of universities in specific regions, while the University Information endpoint offers detailed profiles, including location, global scores, and enrollment data, allowing for comprehensive comparisons and evaluations.
The University Information endpoint requires two parameters: a region (Africa, Asia, Australia-New Zealand, Europe, or Latin America) and the name of a university within that region. This allows users to retrieve specific data about a chosen institution.
Data accuracy is maintained by aggregating information from well-established sources and regularly updating the database. Quality checks are implemented to ensure the reliability of rankings and other metrics provided through the API.
Typical use cases include comparing universities for academic research, assisting students in choosing institutions for study abroad, and providing educational portals with reliable data for user guidance and decision-making.
Users can utilize the returned data to analyze university performance based on various metrics, compare institutions across regions, and make informed decisions regarding academic pursuits or institutional collaborations.

To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
