College & Univeristy Standards
19 years ago
(Had to do a freehand journal for class, but it was so good I had to share it here.)
College standards and university standards I found to be different in many ways. In college you're to get class assignments in at the due day without any exceptions. University standards require that there be an extended time for assignments. In college, you have few classes but the credits could rarely be transferred to another college or university. Deadlines are stricter because of less time. However university credits are easier to transfer but have higher standards that must be completed. If you get credits in English at a college, if you transfer to a university, it is about half chance that you can use those credits at the university. Universities are designed to be much harder than students realize, and are surprised by the toughness. College is hard too, but not as tough as a university. Housing is also different. Colleges rarely have dorms, and universities have dorms. But dorms are closed after the term. Some colleges have rooms, but others don’t. In college you are to take basics, when at a university a basic can be broken down into more categories of one type of a basic. Because of different basics, credits are hard to transfer. Despite all this the question would remain: Would you take classes at a college or a university?

To be specific: Ohio State University (it's twice the size of my hometown if you factor in the faculty.) They have a large engineering program in addition to a fascinating aviation program.
