Colleges

After graduating from high school it is very important for many students to continue their education and go to college. In popular American usage the word "college" is a general term used for any post-secondary education. With that said, it is very important for a student to pick the right college for them because there are a vast array of colleges to choose from. Colleges vary in terms of size, tuition, degrees they offer, location, and length of stay. The main difference between a two year college and a four year college is that you can only receive an associate's degree at a 2 year school and a 4 year college offers a bachelor's degree. Some very popular colleges are USC, UCLA, Harvard University, Juilliard, Boston University, Brigham Young University, Columbia University, Oxford, Devry, and New York University, NYU, Purdue University, just to name a few.
