The good news is that NHL Stenden students enjoy both lower costs and more spacious accommodation than the Dutch average. This was shown in the National Student Housing Survey carried out by Kences, the national student housing knowledge centre. The survey also indicated that the accommodation offered more closely matches what students demand, whether it concerns shared accommodation, studios or apartments. Read the full report here (in Dutch).
