Top 200 Universities in North America

Introduction

What are the most popular Universities in North America? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2023 North American University Ranking of the top 200 recognized higher-education institutions in North America meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate higher education-related organization in each country
offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

uniRank aims to provide a non-academic League Table of the top Universities in North America based on valid, unbiased and non-influenceable web metrics provided by independent web intelligence sources rather than data submitted by the Universities themselves.
