The major reason behind having academic excellence in colleges of the USA is that they have faculty and staff which comprise of the best people in their respective fields.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 20px;\">According to the QS World University Rankings 2014, 6 out of the top 10 universities are located in the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: left;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h4><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 24px;\"><strong>The learning haven<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>USA boasts of the best colleges in the world<\/strong>.
