Universidad Santander
#16
There's another language difference I've noticed.  Most often it occurs with British universities where they refer to a "course."  In the US we typically use that term to mean a 3 credit subject that might take 8-16 weeks to complete.  In England this typically means the entire program of study, the whole degree program.  So if they were to say "I'm taking a course in Business." what is meant is the entire Business degree program.  It think that we'd find more of these little language differences if we spoke more about non-US degree programs.
