The number of US education institutions is so large that it is not possible to list down all US universities and colleges in a single page. As of 2019, the US population is 328.2 million (that’s roughly ten times more than Malaysia’s population of 31.95 million). As of the 2019-2020 school year, there are 3,982 colleges and universities in the US. We hope that this puts things into perspective in terms of the vastness of the US education landscape. Instead, we will help you to understand the types of education institutions available for tertiary education to help you make informed choices.
