Build academy's in every city or in just a hand full?

Every city for me, unless I am in a guild war and not confident I will hang onto it for long.

With the academy at every city you can turn full warehouses into scholarships

Yes, all of them. But don't forget to produce troups. Even in defensive cities. Otherwise scholars from that city will have no meaning.

It all depends on your goal and how close other cities are. If you have an adjacent city you could easily transport resources over and allow that city is purchase scholarships and scholars. Also, you can save resources and time as you would not need to upgrade past Forge level 15.

With only few cities creating a new scholar gets more costly in time. Each new scholar needs one more scholarship. But if you divide them to all you cities you will need less resources. Am I wrong?

Scholars do require incremental increases in scholarships so yes more resources are needed. My suggestion is not to place an academy in every city if you have some in a pocket (separated by less then 2 moves), but to focus on farming and city development and expansion. Have a strong attack city coupled with an academy and each serves a purpose well.

It takes coordination and management, but allows for more troops and less maintenance for certain cities.
