Passage Netherlands Campus Tour 2027

Dutch universities teach hundreds of bachelor's programmes entirely in English, and fees for students from outside the EU are well below those in the UK or US. But choosing between a research university and a university of applied sciences, or between Leiden, Utrecht, Delft and Amsterdam, is hard to do from a website.

This tour takes sixteen students to the Netherlands for a week in March 2027, when universities hold their spring open days and experience days. Students choose the programmes they want to see and attend trial lectures, talk to current international students and see the student housing for themselves.

Between visits, a Passage adviser runs workshops on the practical side: how Studielink and numerus fixus selection work, what the motivation letter should say, how much it really costs to live in each city and how to find a room.

The group stays in one place in Leiden and travels by train, so every university in the Randstad is less than an hour away. Flights, accommodation, meals, train travel and insurance are covered.

Applications close on 31 January 2027. In your statement, tell us which two or three programmes you are considering and why.
