University Education in the United States
In the United States the quality of college education does not vary significantly across the states and is set at a high level. In fact there is not much of a difference between a university and a college. A university is normally comprised of a number of colleges. Universities can be either sponsored by the state, or privately. Private universities are generally more expensive and offer a higher quality education.
Admission to universities in the United States is done on a standardized basis. Normally, two criteria are used when applicants’ eligibility1 is considered. The first criterion is the applicant’s GPA (Grade Point Average)2. It represents a cumulative number which is the average of all GPAs that a student earned throughout his/her high school years.
Another criterion for admission is the score that the student receives for a standardized national entrance exam. An applicant is to take a test composed of three parts: language proficiency3, mathematics, and logic.
If an applicant has been admitted to the university, the next problem he/she will face will be a financial one. Annual tuition and various fees vary in the range from ten to fifty thousand dollars depending on the type of the university. Students coming to college from military service don’t have to worry about any academic expenses. Unless they fail the courses they are taking, all their university bills will be covered by the military.
Once in college students have to make a decision concerning their major field of study. Unlike Russian universities, which admit students to specific departments already chosen by the applicants, American colleges give students an option of choosing their field during the first two years of study. During these years the student can take classes from the list of obligatory general requirements. While at college the students are assigned to academic advisors who guide them throughout their college years suggesting courses necessary to meet graduation requirements.
In the last year of college students start sending out resumes4 to potential employers and very often by the time they graduate they already have a couple of offers from interested organizations.

Task 20. Practise the following for pronunciation.
qualification /"kwPlIfI'keISn/ junior /'GHnIq/
specialized /'speSqlaIzd/ senior /'sJnIq/

Task 21. Read and translate the text.
In Britain people do not always go to university to gain qualifications for certain professions. In many cases they go to specialized institutions which are separate from any university. You can study architecture at university, but most architects have learnt their profession at a separate School of Architecture. You cannot get a teacher’s qualification by doing an ordinary university course – most teachers get theirs at teacher training colleges.
You can study law at university but this alone does not qualify you to be a lawyer. The vast majority of barristers1 and most solicitors2 do in fact go to university, but they do not necessarily study law there. In fact neither kind of lawyer needs a university qualification.
All solicitors have to pass the Law Society3 exam. They study for this exam while ‘articled’4 to established firms of solicitors where they do much of the everyday junior work until they are qualified.
Barristers have to attend one of the four Inns of Court5 in London. These ancient institutions are modelled on Oxbridge colleges. After four years, the trainee barristers sit for exams. If they pass, they are ‘called to the Bar’6 and are recognized as barristers. However, they are still not allowed to present a case in a Crown Court. They can only do this after several more years of association with a senior barrister, after which the most able of them apply to ‘take silk’7. Those whose applications are accepted can put the letters QC (Queen's Counsel8) after their names.
