Tilburg is smaller but focused, especially in economics and social sciences. The student community is close, and the city is affordable. It doesn�t have the buzz of Amsterdam, but it�s great for studying seriously.
Choosing the right programme in Tilburg
The educational program was sometimes badly arranged. I would recommend the university because it is a beautiful university and the people are friendly but not all educational programs are good. Thus, take a look on Google about what information is provided about a program at Tilburg University.
1/5
Not so good after all.
In September, I started my pre-master's program at Tilburg University. In the Netherlands, where I earned my bachelor's degree, passing the entire pre-masters course�was still required. The beginning was disorganized and unclear. Too much coursework for a pre-master's six months. Teachers don't know the answers to my questions, thus I've been having trouble. Considering that you are new to the university, there is a lack of�guidance. Teachers speak to you in a very patronizing manner, sometimes even inappropriately.
