Does a college check your twitter account?
Can a college see your twitter profile if you have it set on private? And do colleges even check Twitter? I don't have have a Facebook (deactivated it months ago) but I'm always worried that colleges will find a way to check my tweets even though they are private. I don't have anything serious on twitter, but a lot of my tweets are basically complaining! If colleges can see that, I'm ready to deactivate that too.

It's more likely that a job will check your facebook or twitter account than a college that you're attending. I mean can you imagine all the applicants that they are going through and all the students they have. They would have a lot of time on their hands to check every single students facebook or twitter everyday. I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you.

Not many colleges bother.
A few competitive graduate programs or scholarship applications might, and like AdviceMistress said, a good number of employers will, especially if you are looking at a field like marketing, communications, sales - anything were communications skills are central.
Of course, if they are private tweets they won’t be able to anyways. So you've done what you should do as far as maintaining that sort anonymity on twitter.

No Colleges do not check twitter/facebook accounts. However I would suggest never add your professors on a social website same goes for bosses/supervisors at work.
