   Getting in

   International applicants should apply for the specific programme they want and check the entry requirements, documents, deadlines and language conditions on the official website. The university’s published information does not give a full international admissions procedure, so confirm the exact route and any programme-specific rules with admissions before applying.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee range for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Living costs in Tilburg will still need to be budgeted separately, including housing, transport and day-to-day expenses.

   Coming from abroad

   In a country with 49 universities, Tilburg University stands out as a public research university built around social sciences, economics, law, business sciences, theology and humanities rather than a broad all-subject model.
