California has the top university and it is not Stanford.

USA Today reports.

It’s official — the world’s top university is Caltech

London-based Times Higher Education (THE) published its 12th annual World University Rankings Wednesday, and while American schools as a whole have lost some of the mojo they’ve showed in past years, they continue to dominate.

Six of the top 10 slots for 2015-16, in fact, are schools in the U.S.

According to the rankings, these are the top 10 schools in the world:

California Institute of Technology
Oxford University in the U.K.
Stanford University
Cambridge in the U.K.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Harvard University
Princeton University
Imperial College London
ETH Zürich – Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich
University of Chicago
This is the fifth consecutive year that Caltech secured the top spot.

Johns Hopkins University, Yale University and University of California at Berkeley all placed high in the rankings at Nos. 11, 12 and 13, respectively.
