What makes them different from each other?
Which one is the most expensive?
Which one gives you the best education?
Advantages? Disadvantages? Ups? Downs?

I'm sure in different places they can mean different things but in Canada, university is more study based and college is more hands on. University tends to be more expensive and takes longer to complete, but depending on the career you want, this can vary. College is more if you want to do hands on work like a contractor, a cook or an artist. It is cheaper and easier to get into, but again, it depends on the job you want to have. Some jobs are looking for university degrees, some aren't. You can often use a college diploma to get into university as well. The main difference is what you want to learn, if you want to do a lot of studying or hands on work. I don't think either gives you a "better education" that depends on whether you are a good student and what you are interested in learning.

The difference between a college and a university is that a college just offers a collection of degrees in one specific area while a university is a collection of colleges. When you go to a university you are going to be graduating from one of their colleges, such as the business college. As to which is better, it depends on what you want. Single colleges tend to be smaller while universities are bigger, but universities are better known.icse board books
