It's like school here.
The tuition is free.
But then you have to spend E150 on a uniform with the school crest on it that can only be bought in the one shop, another few hundred on textbooks that're revised every year to keep them from becoming hand-me-downs in families (Usually, just a chapter re-ordering that causes some havoc in class). Transport. Accomodation. Food. Equipment. A 'voluntary' sports and social contribution....
Free education is remarkably expensive.
