However, today, the division may not be so rigid, with many often placing greater emphasis on performance now than they did in the past.

Some countries separately define their institutions between university status and <a href="/wiki/Vocational_university" title="Vocational university">vocational university</a> status, whilst other countries do not define such a rigid division.
