A '''college''' is an institution of post-secondary education. Depending on whether the student selects one of the [[Worst College Majors]], college can leave the student in suffocating debt and a brainwashing that will take decades to undo.

A college may be an independent organization, or one of many colleges (and often [[graduate school]]s) under the umbrella of a [[university]] system. In the [[United States]], the word college is usually used to refer to university. However, in the [[United Kingdom]] and some former British territories, the word may used to denote a school for post-secondary, but non-degree education, defined as Further Education. Many UK secondary school students will go to a college (a Sixth Form College or a College of Further Education) after the age of 16, to study academic, business or vocational subjects up to pre-university level.

The word college is also used in a few non-educational applications, such as the [[Electoral College]] in the [[United States]], the Royal College of Nursing in the United Kingdom, or the [[College of Cardinals]] at the [[Vatican]].
