The $12K per year is not from the direct subsidy. That all Dutchies know about. Also, Americans can't get that subsidy. IMO, it's almost always a better play for Americans to study abroad since European uni's are qualitatively high and cheap (compared to US), even unsubsidized.
Maybe there are some subsidies I don't know about, but that would not be general knowledge among Dutch people then.
The subsidies from government work like this:
- A student pays $2k per year (ok euro, whatever, can't find it on keyboard)
- The government pays about $8k per year
That adds up to $10k, bachelors are sligthly cheaper (I only heard the numbers for bachelors).
So if you don't want to pay the subsidy, you need to pay the full $10k (bachelor), or $12k (master)[1].
[1] Prices vary per university between $12k to $25k. About 75% of all education is on the $12k level (I've looked at this a lot), some are at $25k such as dentistry and I think med school is a bit more expensive.

It's cheaper in NL because the government subsidizes universities. How would your private coding bootcamp get that subsidy?

I'm now seeing that they have jacked it up since I last checked. I'm wondering what other Dutch universities have done.
