Dutch to English

Education / Pedagogy
Uitgeloot studie medicine.
Uitgeloot comes from uitloten, which translates into Select or Elimination by lottery. Select, in my opinion, implies that a student was somehow chosen........so elimination by lottery makes better sense in this case. Medical Science degree/programme, eliminated by lottery?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Once you're admitted to the selection procedure for random selection, the drawing is random. "Uitgeloot" means that you were rejected based on "random selection" (as the phrase goes) or, in other words, that you "did not draw a placement."

: I think you're on the right track here - however the document you refer to mentions that "you HAVE not drawn a place" for a fixed quota study course / an educational institution with an institution quota (my capitals).
