College

The only thing I'm not looking forward to in college is having to pay for it. The way I look at it, it's high school with more freedom, closer living quarters, more parties, but a little more studying. I can't wait, but it'll take an arm and a leg to pay for.

College = heaven on earth. more booze, girls, and drugs than you can shake a stick at. Personally I stuck to the girls and booze, but to each his own.

Snorting hydrocodone is fun.

Hopefully, by the time I get to Uni (is your college the equivalent of our University??) I should be get a grant - many universities are closing their Chemistry departments and in a few years there's gonna be a shortage of chemists...and I want to do Chemistry at Uni...government grant...oh yeah...

Universitys here are like better colleges. You've got your community colleges, your colleges, and you universitys.

I've always thought our colleges are only two year dealies...

I don't know...

How's your search coming along??

The majority of degrees are 4-year degrees.

You can get a 2-year degree and be a nurse, but a lot of people get 4-year degrees (because....?) anyhow. UT has a really good nursing program. If you can't get into it (it's pretty competitive), there's UTA in Arlington that has a really good program and is cheaper (~$2000-2500/semester).

Actually it donned on me earlier that I could just go to the Austin Community College. Cause I know I don't have a chance w/ UT.

Colleges and Universities are basically the same thing. When a "college" has a certain amount of students enrolled (like a population) it becomes a "university". Simply, the only difference is that universities are larger colleges.

All colleges and universities are the same type of ciriculum, and have the same time frame. Associates degree is usually 2 years. Bachelors is usually 4 years, and Masters is another 2 years. Those are the normals, however depending on how many credits you transfer from high school, and you course load each term, it can be faster, or longer.
