I have been studying at NHL Stenden for a year now and I am very happy with my choice.
I really like the student city that makes you feel connected to everyone and that never feels to overwhelming.
Moreover, the university looks and feels very modern and has a lot of spaces designated to the students and offers a lot of services to support the students in their studies and personal development.
The only downside is that my BA European Studies is a rather small study and is still rather new for international students and therefore feels like it is being overlooked sometimes.
In general, most of the lecturers are very friendly and helpful when approached with questions. Naturally, you will always find your favorits when compared and I did unfortunately have a bad experience with one which we were able to bring up to our other lecturers.
Something I like best about my study though, is the offered language courses so that I can learn Spanish and Dutch during my stay at in Leeuwarden which has been very helpful and motivating for me.
I still plan to finish my BA at NHL Stenden and I am really looking forward to my semester abroad and the possible internships in year 3 and 4.
