Universitas Budi Luhur registered itself as a participant in the Green Campus ranking program coordinated by the UI GreenMetric Team in 2019. In this study, the data processed was data from ranking results whose scores were announced in 2019 and 2020. The results of scoring in 2020 Universitas Budi Luhur earned a total of 5,850 points and was ranked 355th in the world level. The standard category of campus arrangement and infrastructure, the fulfillment of renewable energy, the absence of recycled water treatment efforts, and the use of water-saving devices have not been maximized, causing the percentage of assessment to be below.
