The number of young Bulgarians who will be studying at universities in the Netherlands as of this autumn has gone up by 20 percent, World Education Fair data indicate.

Besides the large number of majors in the English language, what attracts Bulgarians is the decision by the Dutch Ministry of Education to reduce tuition fees for first-year students from the EU by 50 percent. Their degrees of choice are: economics, computer science, design, tourism, sports management and flight engineering.

Great Britain and the Netherlands are the countries Bulgarian students opt to study in most often. Interest in Denmark is also up.
