Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced during his National Day Rally speech that 2,000 places will be added to Singapore's universities over the next four years, all of which will go to Singaporeans. This gradual increase in the number of university places for Singaporeans by the year 2015 is equivalent to having more than an extra SMU, which currently has an enrolment of 1,700 students.
