A supportive academic environment with cultural enrichment.

Tips: Before joining this university students should know that the university offers a supportive academic environment, but finding part-time work requires initiative, as roles are not always publicized. While I didn't avail myself of any scholarships, the resources provided for student support are extensive, aiding in adaptation. The country offers permits, allowing non-EU graduates to stay up to 12 months to seek employment or start a business. Over 9,000 companies in the Netherlands are recognised sponsors authorized to hire international talent and sponsor work visas. Notable companies include Booking.com, Bunq, and Netflix.

Dislikes (Part time work): Finding on-campus opportunities requires initiative, as universities often don't directly publicize part-time positions. Generally, students must proactively search for these roles, whether through departmental emails, or networking with faculty and fellow students.
