Until recently I assume they were synonymous 😅, Here you go to Uni immediatly after finishing HS.

    I’m the US there are 3 that I can think of:

    1. They are synonymous in the general sense. “Yeah, I graduated from college.”

    2. Specifically a 2-year school, but usually this will be community College or something similar.

    3. Sub organizations in a large university

      This is the definition I’m most familiar with. A 2 year community college for an Associate’s Degree. Whereas universities are 4 year institutions for Bachelor’s Degrees.
