org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: java.util.List, at table: College, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(students)]

I'm using Hibernate for all CRUD operations in my project. It doesn't work for One-To-Many and Many-To-One relationships. It gives me the below error. `org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: java.util.List, at table: College, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(students)]` Then again i went through this video tutorial. It is very simple to me, in the beginning. But, i cant make it work. It also now, says `org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: java.util.List, at table: College, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(students)]` I have ran some searches in the internet, there someone telling its a bug in Hibernate, and some says, by adding @GenereatedValue this error ll be cleared, but it doesn't work for me.
