Dutch language courses for international students

08 Aug 2011

Dutch language courses are available at different levels: beginners, intermediate and advanced.

The advanced courses prepare students for the state examination in Dutch, known as the NT2 exam. International students must pass this course prior to admission to a research university or university of applied sciences.

Some institutions have additional requirements. They might, for example, set their own exam based on their language-teaching method. Therefore, you should always ask the institution for detailed information about its admission requirements.

The prices of the courses vary considerably. The costs for a complete series of intensive lessons can range from € 250 to € 2,500. Often there are discounts for incoming international students.

Below is an overview of the contact details of research universities offering NT2 courses. If you are interested in following such a course at a university of applied sciences, please visit their website to check the possibilities.

More information about the courses is available at the individual institutions.
