Four Year Colleges and Universities

There are more than 2,000 four-year colleges and universities in the United States. Some are publicly supported, others are privately financed. These institutions vary in admissions requirements, size, location, cost, affiliation, and many other respects.

Four-year colleges offer professional, business, certain pre-professional, and many other programs. The most common undergraduate degrees are Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Bachelor of Science (B.S.). Most four-year colleges provide dormitories for resident students. There is often additional housing available near the campus. Almost all colleges admit commuting students. Four-year colleges are called universities if, in addition to undergraduate degrees, they offer graduate degrees.
