Studielink would be the first step in the Dutch application system. The information in your Studielink account will be forwarded to a maximum of 4 universities. Once the universities receive your application from Studielink, they would typically send you specific information about further application steps. You might need to write a motivation letters, submit diploma statements and transcripts, take online courses, and carry out "matching" procedures.
Applications in Studielink open October 1.
A few things to keep in mind:
1. you can apply to up to 4 different programs, out of which only 2 so called "Numerus Fixus" programs (check separate entry for NF). You may apply for the same program at 2 different universities, with these exceptions: medicine, dentistry, dental hygiene and physiotherapy. For these programs you can only apply at 1 institution.
2. if you have been accepted to a NF program, you have only 2 WEEKS to accept or decline the offer in studienlink, or you will forfeit your place.
3. application deadlines vary, and are generally between January 15 - May 1.
Numerus fixus (NF)
When the number of students applying for a program is larger than the available places the admission process is selective. You can apply to a maximum of 2 NF programs, out of which only one can be for medicine.
The deadline for NF Programs is January 15.
Important: If you have been selected, you need to accept your place within 2 weeks, also in Studielink. If you don’t, you will forfeit your place.

"Student for a Day", Open Days, Campus Visits and "Matching"
Dutch Universities place great importance in achieving a good match between the student and the academic program the student decides to attend. Therefore, universities offer a large variety of opportunities for prospective students to visit and explore the academic and social offerings of their institutions. "Matching" can even be a mandatory part of the admissions process (see for example Matching at Utrecht University).
Take advantage of such events to ensure you choose the program that fits you best. Check dates and events on the universities webpages.
