Brief look at 5 world most famous colleges

Unexpectedly difficult is to find a universal list of top universities, probably because it does not exist as such. It is also not fair to compare different types of colleges, so I decided to bring only an overview of the most famous ones. Also, I had a really hard time not including some great colleges just because they aren't famous as this five, so if your favourite college isn't among this five don't hate! But you have to agree, getting a college degree from any of this colleges or just being able to spend some time within this campuses would be more than nice. I'll give you some short interesting facts. Let's start:

1. HARVARD

Harvard is the oldest institution of higher education in the United States, established in 1636. Harvard University has 12 degree-granting Schools in addition to the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. Forty-four current and former faculty members are nobel laureates.

As the oldest university in the English-speaking world, Oxford is a unique and historic institution. There is no clear date of foundation, but teaching existed at Oxford in some form in 1096 and developed rapidly from 1167, when Henry II banned English students from attending the University of Paris.

4. CAMBRIDGE

The University of Cambridge  is a public research university located in Cambridge, United Kingdom. It is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world (after the University of Oxford), and the seventh-oldest in the world. . The university grew out of an association of scholars in the city of Cambridge that was formed in 1209, early records suggest, by scholars leaving Oxford after a dispute with townsfolk
