  1. I can understand why the US might be reluctant to take in spongers who don’t work for a living.

  2. Well done, aren’t our European universities good? Always wanting to show off and say “oh I did Harvard”

  3. Oh boo hoo, now she might have to go to a European or a slightly less prestigious university, woe is her

  4. I hope Trump makes an exemption for our crown princess and then the royal house takes the moral high ground by saing ´no thx´.

  5. What does that say about her own country’s universities if she doesn’t want to study there?

  6. Don’t worry you’ll probably just have to pay the “gift” tax and all issues go away.

  7. It’s so funny y’all still love your queens and shit. Or pathetic. I think I meant to type “pathetic”.

  8. Let’s appoint her as the governor of the Lado Enclave before it is too late.

  9. I am sure 5 millions $ will fix that.

    Bonus: A golden card with US glorious führer’s face on it!

    /s ^(just in case)

  10. Will Trump jail her and send her to El Salvador or South Sudan

  11. One way, the us has soft power is by inviting royalty and future potential political figures to the us for study and feeling one of them. The current us government is destroying that without realizing they will no longer look favorably to the us which has long term implications.

  12. Her Bachelor’s degree is from Oxford. I’m sure they would welcome her back with open arms

  13. She should leave the USA before the orange autocrat gets the idea of giving her to one of his vassals, his relatives or even himself as a wife

  14. Plenty of awesome EU universities to go to. In the end it’s her choice, but she has better options.

  15. Just wondering. Would Israeli students get thrown out as well?

  16. I’m an American and if given a chance to study in Europe or Harvard, I’d go to Europe.

  17. The Sorbonne is ‘just down the road ‘.

    The English and European universities should do very well out of this move by Trump.

    Transferring to another US university might mean just waiting for the same issue to arise so, might be better to look elsewhere entirely.

  18. How do these rich people ALWAYS get into a ivy. Ik they donate a lot of money and all but it’s so fucking depressing man. On one end there are genuine deserving people who pour their heart in sop, work their ass off at work/internship, get perfect gpa, get LORs, get extra co curriculuar achievements, participate and win in sports, have won math Olympiads, have well defined aims and what not. Yet get rejected. And on the other end some rich A holes who don’t deserve to be there, they get easily get selected. I’m not trying to say this person is like that..Maybe she really is there with her achievements but I was speaking on general terms.

  19. Tell Trump Belgium will stop the supply of waffles. He’ll revoke the ban. 

  20. Whats wrong with our own universities? Besides that why does she even need to study?

  21. And why didn’t she study in Belgium? Not prestigious enough for her but is prestigious for her own people?

  22. I am happy I can mention here that the Dutch princesses (we have 3) chose education options in UK, Netherlands and Italy…
