Enrolment, Admissions & Registration

It’s great that you’ve decided to enrol for a degree at NHL Stenden. Use this link to enrol and simply follow the step-by-step plan.

A Study Check is a way of making sure the degree you've chosen really is right for you. 
It's a mandatory part of the application process in the Netherlands and simply asks you to review the reasons for choosing your preferred study programme. If you do not take the check and you do not have a valid reason, your enrolment cannot be confirmed.

Some programmes have additional admission requirements. For instance, Hotel Management School Leeuwarden has a selection procedure that includes submitting your CV, a personal vlog and having two personal online selection interviews. Check your degree programme's website to see if there are additional requirements.

You can find the start dates for your course by checking out the course overview on the NHL Stenden website.

Go to course overview.

The admission requirements for each course are given on the course page on the website. Go to the page of the study programme of your choice and check if you meet the admission requirements.

If you do not meet the admission requirements but would like to find out if there are other ways of being admitted to the study of your choice, click here for more information on admission.

Check out the important deadlines for application deadlines.

Once you have met all the admission requirements, your registration will be confirmed. You’ll receive information from the Central Student Administration (CSA) on the process involved before final confirmation.

The application requirements are: 

1. You must meet all admission requirements 
2. You must have issued the digital direct debit authorisation for tuition fee payment / paid the tuition fees
3. You must have done the Study Check  
4. Optional: you meet any additional criteria set by your chosen study

Once you have met all the admission requirements, the Central Student Administration (CSA) will email you a letter of admission.

Unfortunately, we cannot say exactly when you will receive information about your studies since this varies from one study programme to another. If you are worried about the level of communication, you can email Student Info.

You can cancel your application/registration any time before the course start date. You cancel your application/registration using Studielink. 

If you want to cancel your registration on or after the course start date then check the information in ‘cancelling registration’.
