Stanford is #1 in the Wall Street Journal rankings:

Stanford returns to the top of this list for the first time since the 2017 rankings. Ivy League schools also figure prominently, with Yale University, Princeton University and Harvard University finishing third, fourth and fifth, respectively. Two other Ivy League schools—Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania—come in at eighth and ninth, respectively.

Cal is the top public school (#7).  With Georgia Tech (#16), that makes three ACC schools in the top 20.  Notre Dame is #20 and other than that there are no other power conference schools in the top 20.

I'm not to keen on their single measurement criteria for ranking universities, but given it is the WSJ it sort of makes snese for them, I'd also be interested in the size of the error bars around each schools score (the details are behind a paywall) 

Stanford University tops the list of the best U.S. colleges in the latest WSJ/College Pulse rankings.

Unlike other school rankings, this list emphasizes one point: How well did the college prepare students for financial success? More than any other factor, it rewards the boost an institution provides to its graduates’ salaries, beyond an estimate of what they could have expected from attending any college.
