University vs. College
A university and a college are slightly different in set-up and size.
A university (noun) is an institution of learning that provides both undergraduate and graduate programs. It also provides technical and professional training programs in addition to general liberal arts studies.
Example:
1. "I attended a four-year university to study foreign policy."
A college (noun) is an institute of higher learning, smaller than a university, usually providing general liberal arts training vs. technical or professional training.
Example:
More Examples of University and College:
1. "I applied to a university because I want to focus my studies primarily on engineering."
2. "I'm beginning my college career at a local college in order to study liberal arts. I hope that this experience lets me learn what my interests are."
*Hint/Tip: A university is often larger and more inclusive of a variety of academic studies than a college.
Together in a sentence:
"I prefer to attend a university because I can move from their undergraduate program into their graduate program, and my local college only offers undergraduate courses.
