Applying to VU Amsterdam Summer School is as easy as clicking the blue 'Apply now' button at the top of any page of your chosen course and filling in our online application form.
Before you begin, please read the following information.
Required documents
In the application form you will be asked to provide the following two documents (no larger than 1 MB per document):
- Curriculum Vitae/Résumé (mostly important for us to understand your educational background)
- Transcript of records (a print screen of your most recent grades is sufficient and needs to include your name and the name of your university)
These documents will be shared with the professors before the start of the course.
If doubts remain about the academic level of the student, VU Amsterdam Summer School reserves the right to ask for additional documents and/or a telephone/video interview.
Some courses have their own set of additional entry requirements, which you can find on the relevant admissions page for each course.
