2 1 1 The ten worst universities are: Guangxi University, North China Electric Power University, Inner Mongolia University, Hainan University, Shihezi University, Ningxia University, Yanbian University, Central Conservatory of Music, Tibet University and Qinghai University.

The 2 1 1 universities in the bottom ten of the Alumni Association are not only geographically remote universities, but also universities with relatively unpopular advantageous disciplines. Although they are all 2 1 1 universities, the geographical location and dominant disciplines do have certain influence on the teaching quality and employment, which leads to the lower ranking of these universities.

Guangxi University is located in Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, which is known as "China Greentown". It is the only national "2 1 1 Project" construction school in Guangxi, a "double-first-class" construction university, which is jointly established by the Ministry of Education and the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Guangxi University was founded in Wuzhou in 1928, and became a national Guangxi University in 1939. The first headmaster was Ma, a famous educator, scientist and democratic revolutionist in China, who was known as "Northern Cai Nanma" and "a great master" in education.

North China Electric Power University is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education, and also a national key construction university of "2 1 1 Project" and "985 Engineering Advantage Discipline Innovation Platform". In 20 17, the school entered the ranks of national "double first-class" universities, focusing on the discipline construction of energy and electric power science and engineering, and started a new journey of building a world-class discipline and a high-level research university.
