485. Have You Paid Back The Money You Owe The People Of This Country?
After Han Yue finished speaking, everyone at the scene suddenly realized.
This is what I mean by settling accounts.
It is not really necessary for graduates to pay these fees.
But let them realize why they can obtain such conditions.
Any superior educational conditions do not fall from the sky. That means a huge investment!
Educational resources are all made with money!
The same is true for Yingjiang on the other side of the ocean. Their famous universities are also built with money, not the so-called freedom and tolerance.
The income sources of Yingjiang University are very complex, mainly relying on government allocations, student tuition fees, alumni and social donations, etc. Whether it is a public university or a private university, endowment funds are an important manifestation of the school's comprehensive financial resources.
Among them, alumni donations are the most important part.
Therefore, the famous schools in Yingjiang attach great importance to their alumni resources.
In order to obtain more alumni donations, Yingjiang's prestigious university has used many backdoor systems in the eyes of Longguo people.
For example, the recommendation letter system,
Most colleges and universities require students to provide 3 letters of recommendation to get to know the students, and the more famous the person who writes the recommendation letter for the student, the greater the student's hope of being admitted.
Einstein had already made a name for himself in academia when he was in his 30s, but he was still unable to get a full professorship. It wasn't until Marie Curie and Henri Poincaré wrote letters of recommendation for him that Einstein got it. Took a teaching position at ETH Zurich. This shows how powerful letters of recommendation are.
In the eyes of ordinary Longguo people, this is a back door!
Indeed, the recommendation letter system can easily form a fixed circle of interests, exclude the entry of poor children, and form a clan similar to the Dragon Kingdom in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
For example, the priority admission system,
Famous universities in Yingjiang will also give varying degrees of preferential treatment when they meet powerful people, celebrities, wealthy businessmen and applicant families who make large donations. Enrolling the "second generation of rich people" and "second generation of officials" can not only bring in considerable donations, but also improve the reputation of the school. Why not?
Another example is the inheritance admission system.
If the applicant's parents or grandparents graduated from the same university, the applicant's chances of entering the same university will be significantly increased.
Among the prestigious universities in Yingjiang, 29% of freshmen at Harvard University relied on the inheritance admission system to enter the school.
Yale University is 11.9%, Princeton University is 13%, and Cornell University is 15%.
These systems of Yingjiang prestigious universities ensure that the enrollment rate of alumni, the children of powerful people and the rich is much higher than that of ordinary people.
As a result, it also received huge amounts of alumni donations.
Harvard University ranks first with a net worth of more than 50 billion U.S. dollars, followed by Yale University with a net worth of 42.2 billion U.S. dollars, and Princeton University with a net worth of 37.6 billion U.S. dollars, ranking third and fifth on the list.
Even so, Yingjiang's tuition fees at a prestigious university are still extremely high!
The undergraduate tuition at Princeton University is US$59,710, and the annual cost of attendance is US$83,410.
The tuition of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) is US$60,156, and the total annual cost of attendance is approximately US$82,730.
The basic tuition fee at Stanford University is US$61,731, and the total annual cost of attendance is approximately US$87,833.
…Please give me flowers…
Harvard University is still the most conscientious among them. The basic tuition fee at Harvard is US$54,269.
In other words, the tuition fees at famous universities in Yingjiang are almost 8-10 times that of Longguo 985 and 211 schools!
Yingjiang University has countless donations from wealthy and powerful alumni, and it also charges such expensive tuition fees.
And why can Qingbei and many famous schools in Longguo provide high-quality education with a low tuition of more than 5,000 RMB per year?

Because of state subsidies!
The money for Yingjiang University is donated by outstanding alumni, billionaires, politicians and powerful people. ,
The money earned by Longguo University is the result of countless farmers working hard in the fields, countless workers staying up late and working overtime on the production line, countless small vendors working late at night, and countless ordinary Longguo people. with subsidies!
Every college student in Dragon Kingdom spends the hard-earned money of all Dragon Kingdom people.
Especially those prestigious schools headed by Qingbei.
The state subsidizes them, the people respect them, and gives them a sacred halo of prestigious schools. It is to allow them to use their knowledge and abilities to repay society after completing their studies.
But many of them,
But after patting his butt, eating and wiping it clean, he lost Yinglong.
Finally, I would like to say that I think the scientific research environment in Yingjiang is better.
There is nothing wrong with pursuing a better life.
But, you owe the whole country money, have you paid it back?
