Slight drop in new foreign bachelor students in the Netherlands; More started a master's

Dutch universities welcomed nearly the same number of students this year as the previous two, but a slight dip in international enrollment in bachelor's program suggests recent changes are taking effect. Universities of the Netherlands (UNL) reported 340,088 students enrolled, nearly matching previous years. About 220 fewer international students started bachelor's programs compared to last year, a levelling off which kept the total above 18,500, but there was a slight increase in foreign master's students with nearly 17,000 enrolling in a new program
