I don't like to use the word college, unless the institution is actually a College.

Regardless of size, University refers to Institutions with more than one College. For instance, at NCSU we have the College of Humanities and Sciences, the College of Engineering, etc. There are Universities with 3,000 students (and less) and there are Universities with over 30,000 students.

Anyway, that's one of my peeves. End of hijack
