Master's application deadlines

Start your application for a master's

When do applications close? If you wish to enrol in a master's, submit your application before the given date.

Still need to graduate?

Even if you have not yet graduated, you can still apply at any time. However, you need to graduate before the start of the academic year.

Application Deadlines

Application deadlines depend solely on your nationality. You should be able to provide valid (not expired) identity documents for each nationality to be registered within our system. If you have multiple nationalities, use the most beneficial nationality as your first nationality to determine your application deadline and tuition fees. To check if your nationality qualifies as EEA or non-EEA (visa required), visit the Dutch government website.

Be sure to submit your application before the relevant application deadline.

Please note that your application will only be reviewed if requested documents are uploaded and submitted before the application deadline. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed. For example, if you do not have an English language test yet, your application will not be reviewed.

What is my application deadline?

February or September intake?

All (pre-)master's have an intake of 1 September, which means the academic year starts on 1 September. Your first day of class is often on another day. For some (pre-)master's - and also for specialisations within the master's - you can start in February. Check the website of the master's of your interest whether the pre-master’s or master's specialisation starts in September and/or in February.

Start on time and apply now!

If you miss the deadline, you have to wait for the next intake period. 

Do I have to sign up for a pre-master's?

There's no need to apply for a pre-master's. You always enrol for the master's of your choice. Following your application, UT will assess it and let you know if you need to follow a pre-master first. After you have successfully completed the pre-master’s, i.e. obtained sufficient ECTS, you can continue with the master’s.
