Maybe the reasoning was this...?

They have two brains so they're two students learning.

They have one body so it's just one working

That’s pretty much it. They’re legally two people and can get certified for things independently. They both have a driver’s license for example. However, as teachers they can only teach one class at a time. It’s all just the nature of their problem. Though I will say it seems like the college probably could have worked with them a little bit given their unique situation.

I mean... If the school board wanted to give away more money when they didn't have to. Sure. But why would they? When have they ever done that?

I mean, they’re taking the same classes getting the same degree, and taking up one desk. It seems like a college could get some good press by working with them, but what do I know.

A college should have worked with them on this, yes.

However, they are 2 students, not 1 desk. “We’re all getting the same degree, so the whole class can just pay 1 tuition” is not how it works.

'give away', your way of thinking needs work.
