[quote=Anonymous]I'm Canadian and it used to be that in Canada, college=two year program (like trade school, practical nursing, secretarial programs etc), and university was where you would go to get a bachelor (or higher degree). Now, the lines are much more blurred - you can take bachelor's programs at some colleges (for example, interior design), colleges offer post-grad diploma programs you can take after finishing an undergraduate degree etc. To add to the confusion, I went to a university that followed the oxford college model - so I was part of a college within my university.
