Foreign students to again pay state fees

The Yerevan P. Terlemezyan Fine Art College will add student materials to its inventory. As informed by the government press service, it was decided today at an executive session to add four million 95 thousand dram to the education ministry to help in this purpose.

In another decision, one million 990 thousand dram was granted to the ministry to assist in the renovation of the auditorium at the “Martuni State College.”

At today’s session approval was given to the “About state fees” law, in which the December 2006 law was reinstated that had foreign students paying a fee for visas when studying in the country. The government, however, thinks this will assist professors and students in free movement from country to country, leading to an exchange of experience and knowledge.
