🚲University of Amsterdam

As a typical benchmark for international entry, UvA expects around AAB at A Level or 34 points on the IB Diploma. This is indicative for UvA's flagship courses — competitive subjects like Medicine and Law usually sit above this baseline, and the exact requirement varies by course, so always confirm the specific figure on UvA's own admissions page before applying.

International tuition at UvA typically falls in the €13,000–€17,000/yr range (high tier for Netherlands). This is a typical range for the university's tuition tier, not UvA's specific published fee for every course — confirm the exact figure for your intended programme directly with the university.

UvA follows Netherlands's typical intake calendar: September, with applications generally due 1 may (general deadline). Numerus fixus (restricted-entry) programmes such as Medicine close much earlier — 15 January. Always verify the exact date on UvA's own admissions page, since deadlines can shift year to year.

Netherlands universities, including UvA, typically ask international applicants for 6.5 overall. Most universities waive this requirement if you've completed 2+ years of English-medium schooling (e.g. IGCSE / A Level / IB) — always confirm the specific university's waiver policy before booking a test.

A broad research university in the Netherlands' largest city. UvA sits in central Amsterdam and offers a genuinely broad range of subjects, though — unlike TU Delft — not every Bachelor's programme is English-taught, so it's worth checking the specific course. Its Liberal Arts and Sciences programme is a well-regarded English-taught option for students who want breadth before specialising.
