Universities in Latvia are able to grow despite a low level of public support and regardless of their accountability to superior authorities. They can achieve their goals if they get the opportunity to take action. A notable example is Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) that has been able to grow despite relatively small support from European Union (EU) funds and its accountability to the Ministry of Health. The number of students has tripled over the past ten years, and the number of international students has reached 25%.
