| | College |
 | | Nevertheless, several prominent American universities, including Boston College, Dartmouth College and the College of William and Mary, have retained the term "college" in their names for historical reasons or because of an undergraduate focus, although they offer higher degrees. |
 | | This problem led, in part, to the threatened lawsuit between Yale College Wrexham (equivalent to an American "high school") and Yale University, the latter claiming trademark infringement.[citation needed] As of 2003, there were 2,474 four-year colleges and universities in the United States.[2] |
 | | The term college is also, as in the United Kingdom, used for a constituent semi-autonomous part of a larger university but generally organized on academic rather than residential lines. |
