Are students allowed to accommodate their student dorms (during COVID-19)?

Yes, the campus is open and all students who accommodate a room in Breukelen can remain on campus.

How much time is a student spending on individual work and group assignments?

In the Pre-Master, on average, you work on individual examinations (70%) and assignments (30%) (either group or individual). Of these assignments, around 85% are individual assignments and 15% are group work.

Do I need to register in Studielink?

Nyenrode is a private university and, therefore, you cannot register yourself via studielink. Of course you can still apply for financing via DUO or your student public transport card. 

How are the exams and assessments conducted?

The aim is to organize assessments/exams on location. Alternatively, we will provide students with online examinations, by using an online proctoring platform.

For how long is the blended learning methodology applicable?

We will be closely monitoring the updates and policies of the Dutch Authorities regarding the COVID-19 and might consider making changes to the program (organizing in-person lectures in bigger groups) if the current regulations allow us to do so. We will update our students on the status of the curriculum on a frequent basis. 

What will the program look like during this COVID-19 pandemic?

We are applying a blended methodology in delivering the courses. Blended learning combines online education with traditional classroom teaching. We aim to offer a combination of plenary online lectures and supervised interactive face-to-face sessions in smaller groups. Also flipped classroom methodologies, where students take center stage in preparing materials and professors devote interaction time to explaining the topics in greater depth will be applied.

If students are unable to travel to your university at the beginning of the semester, what alternatives are there?

Students who are unable to travel to the Netherlands in September can contact admissionsftmsc@nyenrode.nl to discuss online alternatives for the first few courses or term.

Is the university making any changes to entry requirements (because of COVID-19)?

Students who are not able to receive their Bachelor or Master diploma before the start of the Pre-Master, but expect to obtain it before the start of the Master (January 2022), can already enroll to the program. Depending on how many Bachelor courses still need to be completed, we will evaluate if starting with the Pre-Master is possible.

Will my admissions fee will be refunded?

No, the admissions fee of €150 will not be refunded. It covers costs for administration and the LTP test.

Is the university still accepting applications? Are there any restrictions being placed on international applicants?

The university is still accepting applications from both Dutch and international students, as there are no restrictions on the visa process at the moment. We can assist students with this visa process when needed.

How can I prepare for the admissions day?

Be yourself and make sure to have all your burning questions prepared! We want to meet and get to know you on a personal and professional level. You do not have to prepare for the Personality Test or the group assignment - you will receive all the information on the day itself. For the interview, make sure to convince us about your motivation to study at Nyenrode and also why city life or campus life is your preferred choice.

If I don’t have all the requirements, can I still apply?

Yes! We always encourage highly motivated students to apply. We also offer the possibility of taking additional math or English tests to compensate for lower grades. We are happy to help and advise you.

What is the success rate of applicants?

Our selection already starts when our applicants get in touch with our Program Advisors or visit a Nyenrode Event. We want to make sure that you are a perfect fit for Nyenrode, but also that Nyenrode is the right fit for you! Because of this pre-selection and our highly motivated candidates, we are happy that our rejection rate is below 10%.

In how much time will I hear back with the results after my application?

After you have applied, our Admissions Office will check whether you are admissible or not and evaluate your motivation. Usually, you will hear about the next steps of your application process within 10 working days. The final outcome of your application will be available within 10 working days after you completed the Admission Day.
