Top Universities in USA

 top universities of USA are playing a very active role not only in bringing together people and their culture from different parts of the globe, but also in establishing the country as the biggest knowledge generator in the world. But it is not always easy to locate the best universities in USA, as survey agencies may not use a uniform method of conducting research. As we can not take the ranking of the best universities of US of one survey as definitive, on this page, we have tried to compile the results of some of the best surveys in the world to give a rough idea about the top 25 universities of USA.
