In 1558, Queen Elizabeth I succeeded her half-sister Queen Mary, and lived until 1603.

When Queen Elizabeth II was born in 1926, her grandfather George V was king and the queen consort was Mary of Teck. Elizabeth's mother was Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (Duchess of York) who became queen consort when her husband (George VI) became king in 1936.

What college did Queen Elizabeth 1 go to?

Queen Elizabeth in fact did not go to college. Which is unusual at the time because of the burst of education. She was home schooled most likely by servants but i wouldnt count on that to be the right answer. since her father was King Henry VII she didn't go to college or a university.
