College Vs. University

College is an educational institution which primarily provides the two-year basic general knowledge classes for any major. University is a higher level education institution which provides all sort of levels of classes from a basic general knowledge class to a Doctorate Degree.

Having that said, many students will think going to college is bad because it would sound bad on their transcript. Guess what? It doesn't, colleges tend to offer smaller classes with up to 20-40 students depending on the class subject while universities may have hundreds of students in the same class.

How does that help? Imagine yourself within one class and only one professor sharing his/her attention with hundreds of students, if you ever have a question you will probably need to write it down to ask a tutor later or ask a classmate, while in college you can simply raise your hand anytime and ask your professor. Having that in mind we can assume at some point that college is easier and therefore you should be able to maintain a good GPA and be able to transfer to an University easy as soon as you done with your AA degree.

Moreover, if you look it up at your local school tuition, you will find that college is way more affordable, and pretty much anyone can join as far as grading. The downside is that you will be only taking general knowledge core classes while in college, unless you apply as a transient student to start working on your electives at an university while you still in college.

At the end regardless of which school you went to, you will always be looked up from your higher level degree/diploma and your work experience. i.e: If you have a masters or doctorate degree at Harvard University, do you think anyone cares where you got your AA degree from? Think about it.
