What is a "college"?

A college is an institution of higher education where students pursue a bachelor's degree after completing their secondary education. It provides a range of academic programs and disciplines for students to specialize in, often with a focus on undergraduate education. Colleges may also offer associate degrees or certifications in certain fields. Unlike universities, which often have graduate programs, colleges primarily focus on providing bachelor's-level education and may also include various extracurricular activities and support services to enhance the student experience.
