According to the Academic Ranking of World Universities, more than 30 of the highest-ranked 45 institutions are in the United States, as measured by awards and research output. Public universities, private universities, liberal arts colleges. and community colleges all have a significant role in higher education in the United States. An even stronger pattern is shown by the Webometrics Ranking of World Universities with 103 US universities in the World’s Top 200 universities.
The 2006 American Community Survey conducted by the United States Census Bureau found that 19.5 percent had attended college but had no degree, 7.4 percent held an associate's degree, 17.1 percent held a bachelor’s degree, and 9.9 percent held a graduate or professional degree.
Educational attainment in the United States is similar to that of other developed countries. Colleges and universities in the U.S vary in terms of goals: some may emphasize a vocational, business, engineering, or technical curriculum while others may emphasize a liberal arts curriculum. Many combine some or all of the above.
Students can apply to some colleges using the Common Application. There is no limit to the number of colleges or universities to which a student may apply, though an application must be submitted for each.
Graduate study, conducted after obtaining an initial degree and sometimes after several years of professional work, leads to a more advanced degree such as a master’s degree. After additional years of study and sometimes in conjunction with the completion of a master’s degree, students may earn a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.d.) or other doctoral degree.
