Who was eligible to study at a medieval university?

In the Middle Ages, relations were built on the basis of feudal values. The privileged strata had a number of advantages over other people. They had the right to participate in political life, own peasants, and receive education. The unprivileged strata were obliged to pay taxes to the feudal lord and to the state treasury. To receive an education in the Middle Ages, it was necessary to come from the boyars, nobility or intelligentsia. The rest could not enter a higher educational institution.
