Frequently asked questions
What does the CROHO code mean?
Every accredited higher-education programme in the Netherlands is listed in CROHO with its own code. The code is shown on each programme below so you can look it up in the official register before you apply through Studielink.
What does it cost to study these programmes?
Fees are not part of the open programme data, so we show none. Students from the EU/EEA pay the statutory fee set by the government; other students pay an institutional fee that each university sets itself. Check the programme page of the institution for the current amount.
What are the entry requirements for Bachelors Area Studies in the Netherlands?
Entry is set by each institution. For a bachelors you will generally need the preceding qualification at the level the institution states, proof of English (or Dutch) for the language of instruction, and some programmes with a fixed number of places (numerus fixus) have earlier deadlines. Students from outside the EU/EEA may also need a residence permit, which the institution usually arranges with the IND.
