We have a system where one part (the best part) has free tuition, the cost of which is covered by the ministry. Then there's one part of students that pay a bit more, then a bit more, then a bit more.... until you come to the full price, then the rest pay the full price.
* our Ministry claims that even we, who pay full tuition, do not pay the full price and that they cover some part... Basically, they claim the price we pay is not high enough.
** They calculated my grades from Law school in here, and they shouldn't have, so I didn't get it completely free. I should have, since I had all As. I was not in Croatia to bitch at them for that (I was already in Madrid when they did that), so I'll have to complain now.
