Top 10 Universities: Times Higher Education's 2014 Global Reputation Ranking

In a new ranking from Times Higher Education, the United States holds 13 slots in the list of the 20 universities with the best reputations.

“When it comes to the planet’s most prestigious universities, the U.S. is the undisputed champion of the world -- its dominance is quite extraordinary," said Phil Baty, editor of Times Higher Education Rankings. "Its universities take almost half of the top 100 places (its nearest rival, the United Kingdom, has 10). It is remarkable that the U.S. has strengthened its dominance during a time of austerity, when leading Asian universities have benefited from generous funding and powerful government-backed campaigns to raise their status."
