[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ UK universities are ENTIRELY merit based. They don't give a f*ck who your parents / uncle / grandma may have been.[/quote] All European universities are merit-based. That's why some Americans are so afraid...[/quote] Don’t fool yourself. Universities often get more money from foreign students; so, they’re plenty incentivized to consider factors other than “merit.” I did my JYA at St Andrews, and it was filled with plenty of rich kids from other countries (China, India, the States, countries on the continent). Hard to imagine that such a posh student body all just happens to come together based on merit alone. [/quote] Hate to break it to you but St Andrews is very low hanging fruit. Anyone can go there...hence Prince William's admittance.[/quote] Royalty can go anywhere they want in their country. That is a fact. Also a fact: St Andrews is a good school. [/quote]
