The majority of Americans go to public school for grades 1-12 (Grade 1 starts at about age 5-6). After that many people go on to a university at which they can go 2 yrs and get an associates degree, or go 4 yrs and get an Undergraduate degree. A small amount of people go 2 more yrs and get a Master's degree, and an even smaller amount go on 2 more yrs after that to get a PhD or Doctorate degree.

Of course after graduating high school, going to higher education is completely optional. Did I explain that well?

edit: High School is grades 9-12
