We do offer the subsidies already through grants and through loan opportunities. With a southern comparison, as an example, the certification program is capped at 10 months, the diploma is capped at 20 months, and the degree program is capped at 40 months. So there is a distinct difference. Ours is open up to six years. They can take a degree program to six years. Here, with the southern program, it’s 40 months. So there is a big difference and I think we are providing as much as we can to the northern students. We continue to do that.
