“Not possible to take some courses”
Liza
Netherlands, Undergraduate
, 2021
Overall
The information at e-prospectus about the courses available for students is not true. Even if you meet all the requirements and successfully pass all the courses you still might not be able to take specializations you need as a requirement for your master program. Definitely not recommend this university to anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in clinical psychology.

Personal comments
The dutch are extremely good at english. In addition to this, given that my lessons were taught in english, I did not really have any incentive to learn more Dutch.

Personal spending habits
Because euro is much more expensive than RMB... And the study is so busy, I don't really have much time for Nightlife or Travel. As for the Telephone, I use MSN instead to save money. :)
