This year's National Student Survey (NSS) questioned students on how satisfied they are with the quality of their higher education course.

Both Dundee and Glasgow universities achieved the highest ratings north of the border, with 90 per cent of registered students saying they are satisfied overall with their course.


All other Scottish universities netted scores of 80 per cent or above, apart from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland which recorded a satisfaction rating of 79 per cent.

The UK-wide figures were released by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE).

Across the UK, the body said, the satisfaction rate for students studying at UK higher education institutions and further education colleges remains high, with 86 per cent saying they are satisfied with their course.
