Pathway overview

For non-EU students admitted to a Dutch university or university of applied sciences.

Verified directly from ind.nl, cross-referenced against multiple independent 2026-update sources: you need admission from a Dutch educational institution recognised by the IND as a sponsor (only recognised sponsors can apply on a student's behalf), and sufficient funds to meet the IND's own Study Norm (around €957.87/month for 2026) plus your first year's tuition. Valid for the duration of your studies plus 3 months, up to a maximum of 5 years, and only as long as you obtain at least 50% of your credits each year.
