Good education for international students so I want to study this university
Overall, my study experience has been positive and meaningful. I really enjoy what I study, and I can clearly see myself building a future and a successful career in this field. The program has helped me grow both academically and personally, and I appreciate the international environment and the different perspectives it brings. At the same time, there are some challenges that should be acknowledged. The housing situation can be quite stressful and draining at times, especially at the beginning. However, with persistence, it is possible to find a place, so it should not discourage prospective students too much. Additionally, clearer communication and better organization in some parts of the program would further improve the overall experience. In summary, despite a few challenges, my experience has been rewarding and has confirmed that I chose the right field of study. With some improvements in housing support and organization, the experience could be even better.
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students across the globe to determine the best universities of 2025. Universities with a score above 4.0 (out of 5) in any of the 7 award categories, receive Badges of Excellence. Congratulations!

As most cities in the Netherlands, Eindhoven has a shortage in affordable student accommodation. This means that finding accommodation in Eindhoven can be difficult and time-consuming. It is very common to find accommodation through Facebook groups for rooms in Eindhoven and Tilburg.
Alternatively, if you are a new (first-year) student, Fontys International Office can help with finding accommodation for one year. After that year arranging accommodation is your own responsibility.
