You can prioritise the programmes, you want to apply for – but be aware of the following:

• If you are accepted into a lower priority, you will not be placed on the waiting list for your 1st priority.
• If you apply for admission to one programme and are not accepted straight away, you will be placed on the waiting list if there are any available study places.
• If you apply for admission to several of our programmes and are not accepted into any of them, you will be placed on a waiting list for all the programmes you applied to. You will be offered a place on whichever programme gets to your name first on their waiting list. This might not be your 1st priority.
• You will only be offered one place, one time. So, if you say no, you will not be put on the waiting list for any of the other programmes you applied for. You will then need to stay up to date with any available study places

See the most recent lowest average admission quotas for each programme

You can calculate your weighted average using the Excel sheet below. You must enter your marks and the associated ECTS credits. Please note that this average only provides a guideline.

Where do I get the answer?

If you are not offered a study place on any programme, you will get a rejection message.

The study place is only yours if you accept it on NemStudie before the deadline.
