Cambridge University is only responsible for examinations and degree awarding, while the specific criteria for enrollment are determined by each college and are self-enrolled.
The 35 colleges in Cambridge are scattered in small towns with a population of only about 65438+ 10,000. These colleges were built in different times, with a history of 700 to 800 years at the earliest. Just like their buildings, they have their own characteristics. Although universities and colleges complement each other, they are different entities and economically independent. Universities are public and funded by the state, while colleges are private and die.
Self-financing. The university is responsible for graduate students, the college is responsible for undergraduate enrollment, and the number is planned by the university. The university is responsible for all students' teaching, and the college is responsible for students' life and amateur counseling for undergraduates. At the end of each year, universities rank colleges according to their undergraduate scores and certain rules, so as to promote competition among colleges.
