What do the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge have in common? Well, there are the obvious similarities. Tuition is about the same, university population is quite large for both (150,000 students at Oxford and around 124,000 at Cambridge), and they’re both based in the UK. 

The similarities that catch our attention, however, are these two: They both rank in the top two of World University Rankings 2019 for the second year in a row, and they both use Ivanti. Did you catch that?

They both use Ivanti!
