Britain's Ministry of Defence dismisses the reports, but Harry's past comments suggest that he'll report with his regiment.

...modes of inquiry.” More often than not, Core courses are watered-down introductions to the hyper-esoteric, poorly designed examinations of how disciplines engage with academic problems. This present perversion of the Core’s philosophy has led to courses whose names would suggest an enrollment of just a few sub-sub-specialists attracting hundreds of undergraduates whizzing along this college’s path of least resistance...
