Hi, I'm just wondering if there is any difference betweeen the two: Not really, but I usually hear 'in'. Possibly 'at' may be more a feature of British English. I forget.

- 'I met him when I was AT college' 'I met him when I was IN college' Saying 'college' rather than 'university' is, in my opinion, more indicative of American English.
