Other requirements

General requirements

Your foreign Bachelor's degree must be equivalent to a Bachelor's degree obtained at a Dutch research university (BA or BSc). Your Bachelor's degree needs to be in the same area of study as the Master's degree that you are applying for. (E.g. Life sciences, Medical Biology, Biomedical Sciences)

A Bachelor's degree from a university of applied sciences is not accepted for direct admission. You may be required to follow a Pre-Master's programme (only in Dutch) first to improve your knowledge of the scientific field, before starting a Master's programme.

Student insurance
