“The hague university of applied sciences”

Benjamin E

Netherlands,
Business Studies, 2024

Overall

A decent school where I studied a new study which was very disorganised and sometimes felt like hustlers university. Regardless I continued in my lane grinding as per usual as pressure builds diamonds. As the amazing fish Dory once said, "Just keep swimming."

Pros

Applied mode of study

Cons

New and disorganised

I´d siad that the best pub in The Hague is located in Pipestraat, in the centrum, and its name is De Paap. It is a place where you can enjoy the life music performance. Also I´d recommend De Paters a little pub close the main square. A few important events are the North Sea Jazz Festival, and the Queen´s night

Nearly everyone speaks really good English in Holland (in big cities for sure), so you really needn't Dutch, but at least understanding it and knowing a few words helps, e.g. if you'd like to go to a sports/dance club etc. English was no problem for me, we speak it at home university + I'd studied in the States
