If you are interested in joining one of our sessions, you can sign up here. See you there!
Mini workshops about studying abroad (August)
During the Introduction days in August we will organize a mini lecture about studying abroad. You can find more information here.
Every year the Outgoing Student Exchange Team of VU International Office organizes the 'Study Abroad Weeks' in November. During these weeks, we inform all second-year undergraduate students and Master students about the possibilities to study abroad. This year the Study Abroad Week took place from the 30th of October until the 14th of November. Did you miss the Study Abroad Weeks? Please send us an email to outgoing@vu.nl.
If you wish to apply for a semester abroad in 2024-2025, it is mandatory to watch our information videos and to read our Study Abroad Student Handbook carefully.
The application deadlines for studying abroad during the academic year 2024/2025 (first or second semester) you can find here.
