Netherlands

The statement "In the Netherlands, "college" is equivalent to HBO (Higher professional education)." is not true. "College", in the Dutch language, refers to any kind of secondary education of a higher form (preparing for university or HBO), mostly used in names, though, or it refers to a specific kind of (Catholic) boarding school. Furthermore it can designate "class"/"course"in the context of university: "Ik moet nu naar college" = "I have to attend class, now." All the other uses are referrals to the Anglosaxon uses of "college" (either a university college "English" style, or and American "college"). Joekiedoe (talk) 14:17, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
