## Eligibility

With a (propaedeutic) diploma from a University of Applied Sciences you are not directly eligible to the TU/e. Universities may impose additional requirements on students with an HBO (propaedeutic) degree.

If you have obtained a Dutch HBO bachelor’s degree in a relevant field, you may be eligible for the pre-master program. More information can be found [**here**](https://www.tue.nl/en/education/graduate-school/pre-master/).

## What do I need to do?

- You must demonstrate that you have mastered the English Language at the level of the Dutch VWO exam. You can do this by obtaining a VWO certificate in English, or by obtaining another accepted [**English Language test**](https://www.tue.nl/en/education/become-a-tue-student/admission-and-enrollment/language-proficiency-requirements/) certificate.
- You must obtain a VWO Mathematics B certificate (and if applicable also Physics/Chemistry), which has been completed with a pass (5,5 or higher). [**Here**](https://www.tue.nl/en/education/become-a-tue-student/admission-and-enrollment/admission-to-the-bachelor/) you can see which certificates are required for which programs.
