I think there’s more of a range in American universities. A large percentage of the U.S. population attends post-secondary school. It’s a large country with hundreds of colleges and universities. My impression is that our top colleges are comparable to Oxford and Cambridge. Bates and Bowdoin are reputed to be good schools. The question is how they compare to the colleges he could go to elsewhere. I, also, wonder how and why they were selected. Perhaps they are offering financial aid?
I always thought American universities were better than British.
