In 2012, Justin decided to study at UCLA. Media was furious with college’s decision, since it decided to give an athletes scholarship to Justin. Many stated that he was from a wealthy family, since his father had his own company, and that the scholarship would be useful to someone who didn’t have enough money to pay 54 thousand dollars to attend UCLA.
Justin and UCLA representatives stated that he was given that opportunity solely based on Justin’s skills as a player.
