You have decided that you want to apply for a MASTER's at the University of Twente? Great!

Applying can be a time-consuming procedure. If necessary Student Services will gladly assist you further. To arrange your enrolment or re-enrolment at an institution of higher education in the Netherlands, you have to start at the website Studielink.

You may be admitted to a (pre-)master's on the condition that you still have to pass. Therefore please know that you can apply even though you have not yet completed your degree. Check the admission requirements for a specific programme on the site of the master's of your choice.

Choose your application route

There are different types of applications, so please make sure you choose the right route below based on your educational background, nationality and personal situation:


Do I need to apply for a pre-master's?

You don't need to apply for a pre-master's directly. If you do not meet all of the requirements for admission, you may be admissible to a pre-master's. You always apply for a master’s and the University of Twente will change this to a pre-master’s registration if this is required for you.
