Visit the Bachelor's Open Days

Rebecca shares her experience of studying in the heart of Utrecht city

During the Open Day, make sure you visit the information market where you can ask teachers and students all your questions. Sign up for campus tours of our buildings, or attend a mini lecture. You'll also find information about financial matters, study choice assistance, honour programmes, studying with disabilities, sports, and much more.

When?

The next Bachelor’s Open Day where you can learn more about this programme is on Saturday 8 March (on campus).

Experience days

Curious to know what it's like to study Media 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 spend a day with a current student and follow one or more lectures. You will also have the opportunity to talk to students and lecturers. You will also be introduced to Study Association Akt. 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 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.

QUESTIONS

This is what our students say

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

The biggest challenge of studying Media and Culture for me was my lack of confidence. Don’t let the thoughts of being different and being insecure whether you belong here stop you from your goals, because your perspective is so valuable to increasing the diversity and accessibility of university education.
