agree  Yolanda Broad: If this is the **name** of the school, make sure you put the "translation" in parentheses (you don't translate names...)
1 hr
  -> Yes, I agree with you. Thanks.

agree  Paul Edgar: Yes, this is definitely a University as opposed to a "School", at least in the UK
2 hrs
  -> Yes. However, in the USA they use School to name the different departments of a University. Thank you.

agree  Ian McAllister (X): Very difficult. Depends where you live. Agree with Yolanda.
8 hrs
  -> Thanks. In any case, even in the USA Agricultural School (secondary) is not the same as School of Agriculture (University Department)
