To find out if your home university has a student exchange agreement with Hanze UAS, please contact your university's student exchange office.
On this page you will find all the information you need for your application as an exchange student. You can find our

Application Procedure Spring Semester 2020
>>NEW APPLICATION PROCEDURE<<
From 15 September 2018 we have implemented a new online application system. As with all new systems, there might be some bugs we have not foreseen. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you or your students experience any problems. We will do our very best to solve them asap!
How to apply
1. Be nominated by your home university
Your university's exchange office will need to fill out the online nomination form. Students cannot nominate themselves and can only be nominated for a Hanze School as stated in the agreement between Hanze UAS and your home university.
We accept nominations for the spring semester 2020 from 15 September - 15 October 2019. Nominations and applications for the autumn semester 2019 are now closed.
Please note that a nomination is not a confirmed place on a specific programme. Seats are allocated once you have submitted your online application and Hanze UAS has reviewed your documents.
2. Complete the online application
Each Hanze School has their own online application link. Once your nomination has been confirmed by us, you will receive a personal application link and further details on how to apply online. We will be sending this information to nominated students from 15 September. The application is fully digital and documents do not have to be sent by email or postal mail. Our application deadline is on 1 November.
