MSc Economics - Batch of 2023
4.5
Ample opportunities are available.
Tips: The workload is a lot. But there is ample time to have relations and travel during the weekends. There is ample scholarship, and the programme is focused towards the job market. If you want to do something in academic, then I would recommend pursuing MRes Economics at Tilburg.

Master in Psychology: Individual Differences and Assessment (Research) - Batch of 2024
4.5
A good feasible university option
Tips: There is huge housing crisis in the Netherlands. So try finding houses beforehand. Dutchies are very open-minded and curious about your culture, so cultural shifting is quite easy. They also speak English ( except for some old people). My experience so far has been very good.
Likes (Part time work): There are many off-campus minimum wage (10 euro/hour) jobs available for English-speaking students. If you are academically good, you can get student assistant positions which pay double the minimum wage (20 euro/hour). But there is a lot of competition for these positions.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There is only one store, especially for Indian ingredients in town, but most things can be found for a higher price at grocery shops. Eating Indian out is very expensive and not that good because Dutchies can't tolerate spice. So I prefer cooking for myself and it is very doable.
