The Marshall Islands government has agreed to a five-year, US$25 million funding plan to rebuild the campus of the College of the Marshall Islands in Majuro.
The President Kessai Note says the funding agreement was approved by Cabinet late last week, and it will start in October.
The old and deteriorating facilities at the college are a major problem for its United States accreditation, which
is up for review late next week by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
The college has been on the brink of losing its accreditation for the past year.
The college president Wilson Hess described the agreement as an enormously powerful statement for the institution and its future.
