As opposed to the “University of Spoiled Children”.
74 of the 200 were in the US. Here is the list in order of American U’s that made the cut, but I would certainly argue with some of these rankings, most certainly including the multiple UCalifornia favorites. Note also that these are university rankings, whereas colleges are often a better and more specialized choice for some individuals, and are generally ranked separately:

Some of the universities listed by USNews&WorldReport do not appear at all on the Time top list, and vice versa:
