 Having spent three years living in the countryside, Prince William will now spent ten weeks learning how it's run. One day as heir, he will inherit the Cornwall and with the vast Duchy of Cornwall state measuring 130,000 acres, much of which is agricultural land. It's 13 years since Prince Willam since Prince William began his studies at St. Andrew University in Scotland. Alongside a little fun out of the media glare, the future king earned a Scotish Master of Art degree in geography with two one honors. But with her military duties having ended in September, following the birth of Prince George, it's back to the books, 20 hours of seminars and lectures a week, but this time here at Cambridge University. And because there will be early morning one to one tutorials, the Duke will stay in town much of the time until the course funded privately 1 by his family ends in March.


William has left operational service in the arm forces for good reason. He is not able to devote himself full time to being away from royal duties. There are such duties that he needs to carry out now. And so he can do a ten-week course but it's not possible for him to do a one-year course or a two-year course and probably not necessarily for him to do that either. So I think ten weeks allow him to get a good understanding of the things that he needs to know. 
While learning the life of the land, William will also have to jungle fatherhood and the occasional royal duty. But there is one saving grace. There will be no last minute cramming 2 for exams because there aren't any.
