Introduction activities for Semester in Amsterdam students

VU Amsterdam is looking forward to welcoming all new Semester in Amsterdam students in August 2026!

The Spring 2027 VU Semester in Amsterdam Introduction Days will take place on 29 and 30 January 2027. 

You will receive further updates in our newsletters, including information about how to register for each activity. The first newsletter will be sent in December. If you miss the first newsletter, don’t worry — it will be included in the second. Please also make sure to read the house rules and additional agreements in our FAQs in advance.

Registration for Introduction Activities

Registration for the Spring 2027 VU Introduction Days will open in December. After registration opens, we strongly recommend you sign up as soon as possible, as there are limited spots available (first come, first served).
