MBO Students Now Enjoy Discounted Sports Access at USC with the Same Benefits as University Peers
MBO students in the city now have the opportunity to enjoy discounted sports access at the University Sports Centre (USC). This initiative ensures that they receive similar benefits as their university peers. The first few months of sports access are free, followed by reduced rates for their sports subscriptions.
New Benefits for MBO Students
The introduction of this program comes in response to concerns raised by Jose Alejandro Vargas Valencia, a student representative at ROC Amsterdam – Flevoland. He questioned why MBO students should not have the same access to sports facilities as those enrolled in higher education institutions.
According to Mbarki, a spokesperson for the initiative, this program aims to level the playing field. By allowing MBO students to engage in sports, they gain similar advantages during their studies as those pursuing higher academic paths.
Key Features of the Program
- Free sports access for the first few months.
- Discounted subscription rates after the initial period.
- Equal opportunities for MBO students and university students.
This initiative fosters interaction, providing MBO students more opportunities to meet peers from different academic backgrounds. It promotes a sense of community among students pursuing practical courses and those in theoretical programs.
The program not only enhances the student experience but also encourages a healthier lifestyle among MBO learners. With these benefits in place, MBO students can now enjoy the same sports opportunities as their counterparts in higher education.
