How is this ranking put together?

What are the entry requirements for Bachelors Marketing 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.
