i pass three years in college, now it's my first year in university. (it's not the same system here in Quebec)

What's the difference between college and university?

 

 

 College comes before University. It's kind of like a stop gap between compulsary education and university. In the UK, atleast, college is publically run which means it's paid for by taxes.

Ah, OK, that's why I didn't understand, here in Argentina we don't have that bridge, when you end your secondary education you have the choice, if you wanna go to a public university (free), you take a one-year course where you have subjects relative to the career you chose plus two mandatory, and then you enter the university. If you wanna go to a private (paid) I don't know what happens, it varies between institutions
