1.hey everybody welcome to this b1 English listening practice video you can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak you ready so today I'm gonna talk about universities in the US this is a subject that I'm sure a lot of you are in because maybe you've thought about studying in the u.s
2.so let's talk about some of the that you need to know about American colleges so first things first it's that you know that in the u.s
3.we use the word college with the word university you can say either of these words and they refer to the same thing most of the time in other countries this is not the case I'm sure if you go to the UK or Australia you'll hear people use these words very but since I'm an American I tend to use the word college more than university let's talk a little bit about the cost of going to a university in the u.s
4.before we can calculate the average cost we first need to distinguish between in-state and out-of-state tuition what am I talking about here well if you attend a university that is located in the state where you live where you went to high school it's cheaper if you decide to go to a university in another state it's more expensive this is what I'm referring to when I talk about in-state and out-of-state tuition the average in-state tuition for a 4-year public university in the u.s
5.at this time is a little more than $25,000 per year I know that's a lot but it's actually not that bad compared to out-of-state tuition the average out-of-state tuition for a 4-year public university in the u.s
