When you have a Dutch mbo4-, havo-, or vwo-diploma you already meet the language requirements, and you are therefore exempted from taking a language test.
For all programmes conducted in English, Fontys has set minimum language requirements. Generally, in order to prove that you meet these requirements, you will be asked to send in one of the recognised English language certificates. Based on the country where you obtained your previous education, you might be exempted from providing a language certificate.
As a non-EU/EEA applicant, studying the Netherlands will require an Entry Visa* (MVV) and a Residence Permit. Fontys will apply on behalf of its students for these documents. We recommend you start the process early, i.e. approximately three months before you plan to enter the Netherlands.

*Except nationals from Australia, Canada, Japan, Monaco, New Zealand, South Korea, United States of America, United Kingdom, Vatican City State and Switzerland.
The Code of Conduct for International Students in Dutch Higher Education is a document that sets out rules and regulations for higher education institutions that want to attract and enroll international students. This code of conduct is intended to safeguard the quality of education for international students and to guarantee transparency and clear communication of information.
Taking care of your finances is an important part of student life. There are tuition fees, possible scholarships, and (proof of) living expenses to consider.
Wondering how much your tuition will be? Please check out our tuition fee indicator.
Good to know: The Dutch Immigration Service (IND) requires non-EEA students to prove they have access to a certain amount of money per year or semester.
Besides tuition fees, there are more costs such as textbooks, introduction, excursions and a good laptop. Are you planning to move into a student room? Then you will pay rent and other living costs such as gas, water and internet. International students in the Netherlands typically spend €900-€1,100 monthly, covering rent, insurance, food, transport, clothing, and more.
Check on DUO whether you are eligible for study financing or a student public transport pass.
