In this scenario, students would be required to obtain only 40 of 60 credits to be eligible for advancing to the second year. Most universities and universities of applied sciences apply a more stringent standard, for example 50 credits. Since 2012, EUR requires students to successfully complete the first year of their programme in one year, with Medicine being the only exception.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was stunned when I heard of these plans\u201d, said Psychology professor Henk van der Molen. Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences (ESSB) was the first to trial N=N (Nominal is Normal) when Van der Molen\u00a0was Dean. \u201cWhile N=N was really introduced first and foremost in the interests of the student, EUR also benefits. It not only means better academic success rates, but higher quality education as well. I hope that the political establishment at the national level and at university level will work to dissuade the Minister from her ill-conceived plans.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/posts-list\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"sr-only\">Een lijst met artikelen<\/h2>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"space-y-6 md:space-y-8\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"grid items-strecth grid-cols-1 gap-2 md:gap-4 lg:gap-8\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"@container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div data-component=\"teaser-post-small\" class=\"block-theme-sand  relative flex h-full bg-sand-300\n\tblock-theme-violet:bg-white block-theme-violet:text-purple block-theme-mocha:bg-sand-500 block-theme-mocha:text-brown\n\tblock-theme-sand:bg-sand-300 block-theme-sand:text-neutral-900\n\tblock-theme-violet:outline-purple-100 block-theme-violet:outline-1 block-theme-violet:outline-t-0\n\ttheme-mocha:bg-white! theme-violet:bg-white! theme-sand:bg-white!\n\tflex-row gap-4 @md:gap-8 p-4 @md:p-6\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"image:w-full image:aspect-square image:object-cover shrink-0 size-17.5 @sm:size-21.25 @md:size-30 @lg:size-40\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"460\" height=\"307\" src=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/05\/09221800\/Aula-studenten-collegezaal.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139094\" class=\"attachment-square_lg size-square_lg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/05\/09221800\/Aula-studenten-collegezaal.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139094 2000w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/05\/09221800\/Aula-studenten-collegezaal-875x584.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139094 875w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/05\/09221800\/Aula-studenten-collegezaal-1280x854.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139094 1280w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2017\/05\/09221800\/Aula-studenten-collegezaal-300x200.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139094 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-2 md:gap-4 \">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text-md @lg:text-lg\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/2018\/09\/19\/cancel-nn-the-minister-has-completely-missed-the-point\/\" class=\"absolute-link text-current hocus:underline inline-block\">\n\t\t\t\tCancel N=N? &#8216;The Minister has completely missed the point&#8217;\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-wrap gap-4 items-center\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"sr-only\">Gepubliceerd op:<\/span>\n\t\t\t<time class=\"text-sm font-soehne text-neutral-900\" datetime=\"2018-09-19\">19 September 2018<\/time>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<ul data-component=\"list-badges\" class=\"flex items-center gap-2 flex-wrap\" aria-label=\"Geplaatst in categorie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-component=\"badge\" class=\"block-theme-violet:bg-purple font-soehne font-bold text-sm bg-brown-600 block-theme-violet:bg-purple text-white py-[2px] px-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\tEducation\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enthusiastic <\/h2><p>Plans to ease the BSA requirements drew an enthusiastic response from students\u2019 organisations, and opposition parties SP and GroenLinks were delighted with the announcement. They don\u2019t care much for the idea that an institution is allowed to turn away students if you don\u2019t obtain enough credits.<\/p>\n<p>But other political parties are more sceptical. According to Judith Tielen of the VVD coalition party (33 seats), the Minister is choosing mediocrity and Tielen immediately stated she would not support the plan. The CDA (19 seats) publicly expressed their doubts and are now opposed to the plan. \u201cUniversities and universities of applied sciences need to have the scope to determine their own standards\u201d, declared CDA MP Harry van der Molen when asked.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#039;Pointless&#039;<\/h2><p>De PVV (20 seats) is dead set against the plans. \u201cStandards can\u2019t be dropped any lower\u201d, says the PVV\u2019s Harm Beertema. The trio comprising the SGP party is also not convinced:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s rather pointless\u201d, says MP Roelof Bisschop. Some students need time to adjust and aren\u2019t able to immediately perform at the highest level. \u201cThey should be given some leeway\u201d, he says. But he feels the Minister\u2019s requirement of only obtaining two-thirds of the 60 credits is too low. \u201cStudents will never make up this lost ground. They would have to obtain 80 credits in their second year and that\u2019s not going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This brings the number of MPs opposing the plan to 75 out of 150, so for the moment, there is no parliamentary majority supporting the Minister\u2019s plan. Van Engelshoven has to further develop her proposal, but she wants to send the plan to the House of Representatives before the budget debate.<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/persons\" class=\"mt-6
