What were the acceptance criteria in universities of medieval Europe?

More details can be found in the related Wikipedia article.

University students typically had one of three sponsors:

their own (wealthy) families
the church
the crown

The admissions criteria and payments were set by the respective sponsors.

That is the church and crown had their own "feeder" schools, and chose the best students of these to take university degrees, and generally paid for the students' education. These choices were made on the basis of public policy.

Wealthy families might "home school" their children, perhaps hiring tutors affiliated with universities, then sending those children to whichever universities would accept them, with the family paying the way.
