Admissible

For all programmes conducted in English Fontys Academy of the Arts has set minimum language requirements. To prove that you meet these requirements you will be asked to send one of the English language certificates.

Would you like to start with Dance Arts in Context and you don't have the right diploma, but you are 17 years or older? Then you can take a 21+ assessment test. This will allow us to see if you can still start this programme.

Audition

For this programme you must first audition.

You apply for the audition for just one profile, contemporary or contemporary urban. So please make a choice before applying.

Register via Studielink. You can do this from 1 October onwards. From 1 November onwards, you will receive an email within two working days with a link to your personal admission page (check your spam folder too!). Requirements differ for EU and Non-EU students.

Please note: you can register in Studielink until 1 March 2026 at the latest.

The preselection takes place online. You have to upload material on your personal admission page. After the preselection, only selected candidates will advance to the live audition.

The deadline to upload your audition material is 4 March 2026.

If you are selected, you attend the live audition. The live audition for the 2026-2027 study year will take place in 3 rounds from April 20 to April 23. It is not possible to audition on another date nor is it possible to do this audition online.

A medical test is also part of the audition process.

You receive the results of the audition very quickly, so you won't have to wait in suspense for longer than necessary.
