Experience days

Curious to know what it's like to study English Language and Culture in Utrecht? Then come and join us for a day before you apply. After your application, you'll also take part in a matching process.

Student for a day

During a student for a day event, you'll attend one or more classes and have the opportunity to chat with students and teachers. If you're interested, you can also visit the Study Association Albion. You're welcome to join if you're in your final years of high school, transferring from another programme, or as an HBO student, and if you've already attended an Open Day.

Matching

After you apply for the programme, you'll participate in a matching process. This is similar to the student for a day event but is mandatory and serves as the final check to see if the programme suits you. You'll study course material at home, complete assignments, attend a lecture in Utrecht, and take a test. Afterwards, you'll receive a non-binding advice on whether the course is a good fit for you. It's a great opportunity to get to know your future classmates (and teachers) in advance.

This is what our students say

Our own students know better than anyone why the study programme English Literature and Culture is a good choice. Below you can read why they chose this programme and what makes it so unique.

English Language and Culture is not all endless grammar lessons or more books than you can possibly read; it’s just about studying the language and country you’re mad about.
