No, the word "college" does not mean the same thing in the U.S. that it means in Britain. In the U.S. a college is a part of a university, or a smaller institution me that teaches very much the same thing as a university. However, a community college, or jr. college, or 2 year college is a lesser institution. It is considered to teach the first 2 years of what you would otherwise study in a university, but usually it is not considered to be as good. Many people attend community colleges and then transfer to a regular 4 year college or university, but some never do. People who graduate from community college get a lesser degree called an Associates Degree or AA degree. Also, many Americans use the term "college" just to mean the experience of attending university - as in "I'm going to college next year" or "I went to college in 1982". There it is synonymous with the word you use as university.
