After the increase in student fees for paid education in the next academic year and the protest held in front of Sofia University, and the tension in the education sector continues, NOVA reported.

Today, students protest in front of the National Assembly building, where the changes to the Higher Education Act will be discussed at second reading.

At second reading in a committee in the National Assembly: Paid education fees will be reduced by 40%

According to the organizers, there is still a risk that students in paid form will interrupt their studies, and the number of applicants to universities will decrease.

The Ministry of Education and Science justifies the increase with the higher subsidy that the state has started to pay for students on a state order.
