In the US, a college is a single institution offering bachelor and perhaps masters degrees in one to several programs such as the arts, sciences and business.

A university, on the other hand is a combination of a number of colleges, each with its own speciality, such as school of law, medicine, engineering, business, fine arts, etc. Each college confers the max. degree such as MD, PhD, LLD etc.

You can certainly get a masters at a college.

I think the university has different faculties, such as school of medicine,college of arts, department of mechanical engineering. The word of college probably more pertaining to, say Red river Community College, George Brown Institute of technology, and so on. That’s why an university appears as higher rank than a college. However, say,Sydney college of Master Business Administration in Australia University can confer you a master degree of whatever. If you pass the exams and score enough grade points in a college, they can offer you a master degree, or even a Phd degree.

To my own understanding University is higher than College. Seconadry School is sometimes called College but University is where you go to get Degrees, Masters and Phds.

From what I’ve seen, a University is often a collection of colleges. College of Engineering, College of Business, College of Arts and Sciences. They are all within the same university. That’s how many of them are from what I’ve seen.
