  This ranking includes over 5000 universities worldwide, with more than 1800 institutions from 96 countries and regions appearing in the various subject lists. The rankings are primarily based on five indicators, with specific weightings varying by subject, each emphasizing different aspects. The details are as follows:

 

  Number of papers in top journals (Q1): This indicator counts the number of Article-type papers published in journals ranked in the top 25% by impact factor (Q1) in the corresponding subject as recorded in the InCites database over the past five years (2016-2020).

  Normalized citation impact (CNCI): This refers to the average ratio of the citation counts of Article-type papers recorded in the InCites database over the past five years (2016-2020) to the average citation counts of papers of the same publication year, subject, and document type.

  Proportion of international collaborative papers (IC): This indicator counts the proportion of Article-type papers recorded in the InCites database over the past five years (2016-2020) that have addresses from foreign institutions.

  The continuous dominance of American universities clearly demonstrates the strength of the U.S. education system. It is well-known that the educational standards in the United States have always been praised worldwide, particularly in higher education, where it stands as a global leader. This is also reflected in various well-known rankings such as the "U.S. News & World Report Best Global Universities Rankings" and the "Times Higher Education World University Rankings", making it evident that the strength of American universities is widely recognized.

 

  Today, "educational planning and identity first" has become an important option for many parents when planning their children's future growth! The United States, with its rich educational resources, comprehensive educational system, and advanced educational concepts, attracts countless Chinese families and students. A U.S. green card provides children with more choices. Having an "identity" not only affects tuition costs, scholarship applications, and student loans but also plays a crucial role in future employment opportunities and admission chances to prestigious schools, allowing students to enjoy the hidden benefits that come with "green card status".
