And if their grades in high school are satisfactory, they are admitted to a university where they may take a Bachelor's degree after a four-year course of study. During the first two years certain courses in English, social science, natural science and so on must be completed before a student may begin an intensive study of his special field. Nearly all of Universities in the United States are coeducational. This means both men and women attend the same university.
