Deadlines exchange students

The application process includes multiple steps, each with its own deadline. On this page, you will find the deadlines per step.

Application deadlines depend solely on your nationality. To check if your nationality qualifies as EEA (European Economic Areas) or non-EEA (visa required), visit the Dutch government website (when your nationality is not on this website, you have a non-EEA nationality).

If you have multiple nationalities, you should provide a valid identity document for at least one nationality. If you also have an EEA nationality next to a non-EEA nationality, you should use the EEA nationality as your first nationality. Note, that your nationality is leading, even if you have a Dutch or European residence permit. For example: if you have a Mexican nationality and hold a Spanish residence permit, your nationality is Mexican (not Spanish).
