Admission requirements for Master's programmes

Bachelor's degree
Your foreign Bachelor's degree must be equivalent to a Bachelor's degree obtained at a Dutch research university (BA or BSc). Your Bachelor's degree needs to be in the same area of study as the Master's degree that you are applying for. A Bachelor's degree from a university of applied science is not accepted for direct admission. You may be required to follow a pre-Master's programme first to improve your knowledge of the scientific field, before starting a Master's programme. Please note that not all studies offer a pre-Master’s programme.

Command of the English language
When applying for admission to an English-taught Bachelor’s or Master’s programme at Radboud University, you need to have sufficient command of the language. There are various ways to prove this, sometimes through your diploma or citizenship and in other cases through a language test certificate (TOEFL iBT, IELTS, Cambridge Certificate of Advanced English (CAE) or Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE)).
