Depends on the school / college you choose?
Rules will change, one may have more features than the other ect..

Well all my mates went to sixth form and they have a stupid dress code and they're not aloud to leave the school until 1.00pm they also have to call the teachers sir/miss
I went to college we don't have a dress code we come and go as we please ( as long as we go to lessons) and we call the teachers by their names for example I call my tutor Mike
hope that helps

I’ll be a story in your head, but that’s okay, because we’re all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know. It was the best. A daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I always meant to take it back. Oh, that box, Amy, you’ll dream about that box. It’ll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand-new and ancient and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would had…Never had. In your dreams, they’ll still be there. The Doctor and Amy Pond and the days that never came.

I go to a Sixth Form College... I never really knew there was a difference? Maybe a college is an educational facility that has a major and minor, while a sixth form is a place like school but with A levels?

I went to college and I think it's better than sixth form. Lecturers were more laid back and at school, it goes by a timetable so everyone has a lesson at the same time. At college, classes are at loads of different times.

I also think college made me grow up alot more when I've seen my friends who are in the sixth form they seem very immature and when i hear about what they do at their break times they still do stupid things that we did in year 7 I'm not saying everyone whos in sixth form are like this I'm just telling you what i've noticed

They treat you as adults at college and the ages in classes are mixed.MacBook White

There the same thing over here, sixthform collage gets its name becuse it handles yr 12-13, more often just year 1 and 2, unless the sixth form collage is attached to a secondary school.
Collage is though sometimes used interchangably with univerity which you can blaime america for.

A SIXTHFORM IS MUCH MORE FORMAL THAN COLLEGE, YOU HAVE TEACHERS THAT CHASE YOU UP FOR WORK AND SO ON. COLLEGE IS LAID BACK AND YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU LIKE. YOUR HAVE TEACHERS BUT THEY DONT CHASE YOU UP FOR WORK ETC.
hope this helps
