UK colleges are not the same as the USA colleges. UK colleges are a form of education that is a step foreward than a high-school education. If you want to prepare for a future career in the UK you should rely on a University! Universities in UK are known to prepare their students for their future career very well. Unlike the Liberal Arts Colleges, in a UK Universitie you start preparing for a specific career just from the beginning of your education there.
- It is a fact that UK educational system, especially the English one, is known in the world as one of the best!
- It is a fact that about 93% of students graduated in the UK are able to find a job straight after they graduate(the statistic is from a magazine about studying abroad), which is a bigger number, compared to the Liberal Arts Colleges
- It is a fact that in teh UK higher education is cheaper, and you can take a loan for your education taxes and a loan for your cost of living. The both loans are united in a one , and they do not demand you to repay the loan untill you graduate and untill you get a sellary over 15,000 Pounds. Then you pay just 9% of your sellary, and if again you ae recieving less than 15,000 the repayment stops untill you fidn a better job. For more information see this and this
- Another fact is that the Applyment in a UK college or a university is more difficult, and the SAT exams are not available there, but lately there was a reform about attracting more foreign students
- It is a fact that the best UK universities prepare students for a primary sellary of at least 15,000 Pounds, which is not so much in an expensive country as England, for example, however this is the lowest sellary the best colleges prepare you for getting.
- It is a fact that UK is not as rich country as the USA, but the cost of living there is also not as higher as in the USA —>> See this statistic
- There aren’t Liberal Arts Colleges in the UK
- It is a fact that the UK is a very prospering country too, and their querry is the most expenssive in Europe and in the World, and such a prospering country relies on a specific career education.
The USA and the UK are two different countries, with very different points of view about higher education. Both of them have their weak and strong points. It is just a matter of comparing the lifestyle in these two countries in order to deside which kind of education is better for you. And another fact that should be considered is which country would be more pleasant for you to live in. Quite confusing, isn’t it

it’s not harder to get into a uk college, unless it’s oxford or cambridge.
most colleges are cheaper than us ones, but most of them do not offer scholarship.
no college can guarantee your salary.
the cost of living … well, it’s not easy to compare. there are different towns. i think anyone with a job could survive much better in us and uk than in bg. i have not lived in us, but i have lived in uk
if i were an undergraduate student, i would choose a liberal arts college in us, and then move to live in the uk
