Nitasha Silesh’s Swiss education is costing her father almost twice what the parents of presidents, prime ministers and heirs to the British throne have paid.
Silesh started last month at Leysin American School in the Swiss Alps northeast of Geneva. Her tuition is 69,500 francs ($71,760). Students are charged 29,862 pounds ($46,969) a year at Eton College, where Prince William, England’s future king, and Prime Minister David Cameron were educated. At Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, where both Bush presidents got their high school diplomas, annual tuition is about $41,300.
