I went to their website, because I had to know. They explain it a bit on there and did mention some British influence with the University College part, so you are probably close with your Oxford guess.

Cliffs is they had a long name before and wanted something easier. I think they failed miserably. Why not go with College and University of Maryland State University College and Trade School?
