“Great school for international people”

Andrius N

Netherlands, Undergraduate
Business Studies, 2019

Overall

It was great to spend 4 years in small and cosy Leeuwarden. The quality of studies really amazed me. I studied IBMS which is considered to be the most challenging course, however, I think that it can be easily managed if you possess some dedication and have sufficient English knowledge.

Pros

Nice and cheap city, good education quality, very international

Cons

Hard to get a part time job if you do not speak Dutch
