Since the establishment of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in 18 13, the government has assumed the responsibility of providing adequate and good education. The investment in education from 65438 to 0995 accounted for 5.6% of its GDP. The compulsory education system of 5- 16 years old is implemented, and parents do not have to pay any fees during the compulsory education of children. There has been no illiteracy in this country for a long time, and most intellectuals know three foreign languages: English, French and German. Schools are divided into public schools and private schools. Although more than three-quarters of schools in the Netherlands are private schools, all schools that meet certain conditions can obtain "special funds for education" from the government to arrange various teaching activities.
Most universities in the Netherlands have financial subsidies and are non-profit organizations. The annual tuition fee is 1.500 euros (about 1.500 dollars). The cost of living is also lower than other countries in Western Europe or North America, with a maximum of 600 euros per month.
Compared with the United States and Britain, the cost of studying in the Netherlands is cheaper, and the cost of studying in the Netherlands is about 1/5 of the tuition in the United States and Britain. The average family can afford to study in Holland.
Foreign students in the Netherlands have received more attention in social life, medical care and housing. This work is the responsibility of the foreign student management offices of universities. The school guides freshmen to familiarize themselves with the school and its surrounding environment.
What is the cost of studying in Holland?

Courses in Dutch universities are basically taught in English, so international students don't need to learn Dutch specially, as long as they have TOEFL or IELTS scores. Universities have different requirements for the scores of these two tests, generally 550 TOEFL or 6.0 IELTS. It is reported that the Netherlands will set up English cram schools in China and the Netherlands to help students improve their English quickly.
You need a high school diploma to apply for an undergraduate course, and a relevant undergraduate diploma and degree certificate to apply for a master degree. Some professional colleges may attach other conditions to require students to have relevant work experience.
Students studying in the Netherlands should provide corresponding financial guarantee documents after receiving the notice from the school; After getting the visa, exchange money through legal foreign exchange procedures in China, and send the tuition and living expenses for the first year to the school before arriving in the Netherlands.
Tuition and registration fees: There is no uniform standard for tuition and registration fees of Dutch universities. The tuition fees and registration fees of students vary from school to school, and schools can decide according to their own conditions. Schools often give discounts to foreign students who have just arrived in the Netherlands, and the international student offices of various schools will provide details.
Living expenses: Generally, it is 65,438+03,000 to 65,438+05,000 guilders per year. According to the standards of European students, China students generally have savings. The monthly living expenses (including food and accommodation) of China students in the Netherlands are about 1000 guilders, equivalent to RMB 3,500.
International students can generally live in boarding houses arranged by the school, and the cost ranges from 450 to 850 Dutch guilders per month. International students can work while studying for a degree, but they need to apply for a work permit.
Insurance: generally about 1000 guilders per year, including the basic items that students need in the Netherlands.

Introduction of Dutch Scholarship for Studying Abroad

1, Dutch government scholarship-Delta Scholarship
DELTA Scholarship Project was initiated by the Dutch government on 200 1. The Dutch government offers scholarships of different amounts to students from Chinese mainland, Taiwan Province, Indonesia and South Africa. Scholarships are directly distributed by the government to 29 universities in the Netherlands, and then the specific amount is finally decided by each school according to its own different policies on scholarships, and then distributed to students.
Judging from the current policy, all Dutch universities affiliated to these 29 universities can get this scholarship quota, but students can't confirm the scholarship quota before going to the Netherlands. Therefore, in a sense, when applying for admission to a Dutch university, students should first refer to the tuition fees of the university according to their own economic situation, plus the annual living expenses of about 40,000-50,000 (including food and accommodation insurance) to decide whether to apply.
