Study in the Netherlands from India
Dutch universities offer more English-taught degrees than any other country in continental Europe, and the university, not you, applies for your residence permit. After graduating you get the orientation year: twelve months to find work, with a much lower salary threshold for sponsorship afterwards.
| What | Detail |
|---|---|
| Who applies for the permit | The university, as your recognised sponsor |
| Tuition for non-EU students | Several thousand to over twenty thousand euros a year, by institution and course |
| Funds to show | A set monthly amount for living costs, often transferred to the university |
| Work while studying | Limited hours, and the employer needs a work permit for you |
| After graduation | Orientation year of 12 months, with free access to the job market |
What to know. Student housing is extremely scarce. Some universities advise students not to travel unless they have secured a room. The Netherlands has also moved to limit English-taught bachelor’s programmes, so check that your course is still offered.
