I think it's the other way. If you pay a lot of money then you sort of can expect to get a degree at the end. When I went to school in Germany they made a lot of effort to weed out people. If it's for free you can't really complain but if you already have paid $100000 it's harder for the school to justify people failing the course.

Public funding sources can be tied to students and their success as well. If failing students means lower ratings and enrollment for the school, which in turn means lower funding levels, the school has just as much incentive to keep students advancing.
