The total cost to build the University is estimated at $50 million an the project is funded by the Dominican Republic. This was one of the promises that the President of The Dominican Republic, Leonel Fernández, made following the earthquake to help Haiti.
When construction ends in January 2012, University Roi Henri Christophe will have seventy two classrooms and be able to accommodate 10,000 students per day.
Martelly wants to use the placement of a major university in the city of Limonade in his plan of decentralization, starting with education.
