Personal comments
Since it was an Eglish-speaking program, we were not obliged to speak Dutch. Besides, Dutch people speak English. However, to get acquainted with the everyday life, we had 2 hours of Dutch a week. Don't expect to be bilingual in Dutch at the end of your experience!

All classes and examinationas were held in English. Apart from that I had to write a graduation assignment in English as well. I tried to learn Dutch and at the end was able to communicate in the day to day situations.
