College in America

The USA has some of the best universities in the world. Who doesn't know the names Harvard, Cambridge, Princeton, Berkeley?
In the USA, college is an alternative to university or a link between high school and university. After high school, many school leavers go to college! The college thus stands for an American variant of the university of applied sciences or vocational school.

 

College (Study/GAP Year) at a college in the USA, 1 year of study (2 semesters). Accommodation in a student residence.

 

After the "American Abitur", it's off to college!
What applies to American school leavers is now also possible for high school graduates, students and young adults from all countries of the world!

Around 70% of all American high school graduates go on to study.
A distinction is made between university, college and community college.
While university studies are similar to those in Germany, college is organized like a university. The community college is comparable to a high school.

Colleges can be public or private. The study period typically lasts 4 years. The courses offered can be diverse: whether economics, law, social sciences, engineering, pedagogy or administrative sciences and management. As a degree, you will receive a bachelor's degree or comparable degree.

The mostly public community colleges have experienced a major upswing in recent years. Almost half of all American school leavers who study are already drawn to such a university. A course of study lasts 2 years. Courses include humanities, management, computers and engineering. But specializations such as nursing are also offered in some cases. As a degree, you receive the associate degree or bachelor's degree.

 

In the ehighschool FairPlay College Program, ehighschool selects the university (college or community college) according to availability and other conditions, and thus also the location.
But the price is particularly reasonable.

There are 2 variants of the ehighschool "FairPlay" program: Accommodation with a host family or accommodation in a student dormitory.
