    In/at the university
    Message from clint01 posted on 04-09-2015 at 10:11:13 (D | E | F)
    Hello,
    We usually use 'in' before a place when we want to tell that someone is actually 'inside' that e.g. building.
    For instance, I think Kate is in the bank right now.
    But if we are not quite certain we may say: I think Kate is at the bank.
    It means she might be IN THE BANK or OUTSIDE the bank.
    If the name of the place is mentioned we can say: at the Oxford university.
    Would you mind letting me know if what I mentioned above is right or wrong.
    Thank you in advance
