Student review [#21003] for B.Sc. in Psychology
at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam - VU Amsterdam

My first year of college was great, in-person lectures and classes were essential for getting to know people, sadly because of covid obviously a lot of this is gone.
From a pre covid point it was a very well thought course with leading experts in the field presenting lectures and classes. I can’t talk for all of Vu but the psychology facilities are old and dated which is unfortunate.
The social life in Amsterdam is second to none, arguably there is nowhere better in the world for a student to live.
I would recommend this course to anyone interested in psychology as it was everything I expected it to be and more.
The course isn’t the hardest course to be accepted into but the coursework does require a lot of attention and work.
In the third year, there is also a chance for an exchange abroad which can be an exciting time to look forward to at the end of your course.
