Additionally, you must pay the €275 residence permit fee through Osiris. This fee is non-refundable and can be paid via VISA or MasterCard (debit or credit card). You can find more information in the payment portal.

The deadlines to submit your application and pay fees are June 15th (September start) and November 15th (February start).

NB: Full-time Bachelor’s and Master’s applicants must ensure they meet the admission requirements with the visa deadline of June 15th / November 15th. If you do not meet these conditions before the visa deadline, we will be unable to forward your application to the IND.
 

Once your application is complete, the university submits it to the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) for review. You will receive an email from us, once the university has received a confirmation from the IND that your visa application has been approved. This generally takes between 2-5 weeks.

Important: Do not book your flight until you receive official confirmation that your residence permit has been approved and until you received your MVV (entry visa). 

Please do not email us about the status of your IND decision: We do not have control over how long the visa process takes, nor can we provide updates beyond what is stated above. As soon as we receive the official confirmation, we will notify you immediately.
 

You will need an MVV (entry visa) to enter the Netherlands. You must schedule an appointment at the Dutch embassy or consulate in your country.

The process usually requires two visits:

1.    The first visit is for submitting biometric data (passport, signature, and fingerprints), which the IND uses to create your residence permit card.
2.    The second visit is to collect the MVV visa sticker, which will be placed in your passport. This visa is valid for three months and allows you to travel to the Netherlands.

Once in the Netherlands, you will receive your VVR (Dutch student residence permit). This is a separate card and serves as your official residence permit, valid for the duration of your studies.

You will receive detailed instructions via email after your visa application is approved.

Important: When submitting your visa application, you must indicate at which Dutch embassy or consulate you will pick up your MVV. The embassy must be in your country of residence. If there is no Dutch embassy in your own country, you can book an appointment with an embassy in a neighbouring or nearby country. Once the application has been submitted, the chosen embassy cannot be changed.
 

Once you arrive, you will receive an email with instructions on the next steps, which include:

•&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è; Registering with the municipality where you will live (mandatory for maintaining your residence permit).
•&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è; Collecting your residence permit card from the IND once it is ready. You will receive an email from us when it is ready for pick-up.
•&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è;&²Ô²ú²õ±è; Tuberculosis (TB) testing, if required based on your nationality.
