  All students holding a non-Dutch educational degree have to pay an application fee of €100 for an application to a bachelor's programme.This means that your application will only be reviewed once the application fee has been paid and the money has been received by UT. The application fee will not be refunded. - Upload your documents in Osiris

  To start your online application procedure, you will need to upload several documents. We have prepared example documents to check the type of document you have to supply digitally. If any hardcopy documents are required, UT will notify you and tell you where to send them.

  Continue your application via the Osiris application, using the login credentials provided to you via email. After you have logged in, you click on details behind your application to continue the procedure. If you wish to submit a new or additional application, you have to apply again via your Studielink account as it is not possible to apply via Osiris. - Assessing your application

  Our admission office will assess your application. We aim to inform you about your admissibility within two weeks after your application. This can take longer if your application is incomplete or additional information is needed to make an informed decision about your chances of success here. Should this be the case, we will contact you.

  If you wish to monitor the status of your application, then log in to Osiris and click on progress behind your application. - Decision on admission

  ACCEPTED - You will be sent an email with an admission notice, together with instructions for the next steps of your application.

  CONDITIONAL - This means that you do not yet comply with all the requirements for the study programme of your choice. The correspondence sent to you will explain what further actions you need to take for final admission. You may be required to pass a further examination.

  REJECTED - In some cases, you may not meet the admission requirements for the study programme of your choice and your application will be rejected. This will be explained in the letter that is sent to you by mail. - Matching activities

  Some bachelor’s programmes have mandatory admission activities to finalise the admission and enrolment procedure, these take either place before or after your possible admittance.

  There are three selection and matching procedures at the University of Twente: matching, compulsory matching*and numerus fixus*. Due to these procedures, deviating deadlines may apply.

  *Please know, that if you did not participate or only partially participated, you cannot start your studies, regardless of whether you were conditionally admitted. - Payment and finalising your enrolment
