William got a discount and enraged other students
Prince William received backlash after he was given a discount on his Cambridge University fee. Many “ordinary” students finish their degree with an average £25,000 debt. Prince William got a significant discount on his tuition fee.
Clearly there are students who need financial assistance more than the heir to the British throne who’ll inherit an estate worth hundreds of millions. The royal family is quite taken care of even without the pay cut. Protesters said that they should have refused the discount. The University said that the course he’s taking is meant for business leaders and in this particular case, for a future king.
