Hey,

As far as I understand, these two terms are quite similar. If anything, the distinction might be by the numbers: Baccalaureate Colleges are classified as such if they award a certain number of liberal arts degrees (I think 40%). A liberal arts college is a tertiary institution, generally in the United States. These colleges allow students to take a broad array of classes so as to expand their ability to think without necessarily worrying about practicalities. There doesn't seem to be a limit on graduate numbers in order to fulfill its classification. I actually came across a great new site for this kind of help. Check out www.askanivyleaguer.com...they have Ivy League kids answering questions. It's good stuff.
