The reviews on the back cover compare this book to Harry Potter, but I disagree. It's much more similar to Tamora Pierce's Lioness Quartet. The "college" only takes up the first of the 3 volumes of the book and the heroine doesn't even get a chance to finish her degree, but instead finds out that she must go home and use her powers to mend a "rift" in the standards of magic in her world before a misguided (although not truly evil) classmate can make the rift even worse.
The sequel to this book is A Scholar of Magics but it follows an entirely different set of characters.
