More cash for minority college students

Tuesday 27 May 2008

Education minister Ronald Plasterk is to give five hbo colleges in the Hague, Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Utrecht a total of €4m to try to boost the results of students with an ethnic minority background.

The funding will rise to €17m a year by 2011. Statistics show that students with a Turkish, Moroccan or Surinamese background have a high drop-out rate.
