A college is an educational institution that offers higher education after high school
. In Denmark and Scandinavia, we usually use the term “university” for this type of institution, but in the US, “college” refers to a wide range of educational institutions that vary in size and specialization.

What characterizes a college is that it often has a dense and connected campus where students can live, study and participate in various activities. This campus environment is often the center of the college experience and includes amenities such as sports facilities, study facilities, dining, shopping and more.

Colleges offer a wide range of degree programs, from arts and humanities to science and business. Some colleges specialize in specific subject areas, while others offer a broader educational profile. In addition, many colleges are known for their sports programs, where they compete against other colleges in a wide range of disciplines.

In the US, there is no fixed age limit for college admission. When and how you start your college education depends on your personal goals and educational plans.

You can choose to start your college education directly after your upper secondary education in Denmark, whether it is HHX, STX, HTX, HF, EUX or EUD. This is the primary requirement for admission to most US colleges.

Many new college students in the US typically start college between the ages of 18-21, but the age varies significantly depending on each student’s background and career choice. Some students may choose to work or travel for a period of time after high school before starting college. Others may have already completed a bachelor’s degree in Denmark and want to pursue a master’s degree at a US college.

So, in short, there is no set rule for age, but rather a question of when it best fits in with your education and career plans. College education in the US offers flexibility and opportunities to customize your education to your individual needs and goals.

The price related to going to college in the US varies depending on several factors like type of school, location and area of study you are interested in. Typical costs include tuition, books, room and board, healthcare and personal expenses.
The price level without an awarded scholarship can range from $10,000 to $70,000 or more per year.
