The Netherlands got its beautiful name from the fact that around a quarter of this small northwestern European nation sits below sea level. Beyond its traditional associations (think windmills, tulips and clogs), it is currently one of the most developed and wealthy nations in the world, with a largely urban population. On top of that it is one of the most densely populated countries in Europe, it’s known for its tolerant and liberal ethos, and boasts a wealth of great student cities – none of which are more than a bicycle ride (the nation’s preferred mode of transport) away from some picturesque countryside. There are also a variety of low and cheap tuition universities for locals and international students. Applying to Study in Netherlands There are two standard ways of applying to Dutch universities – directly to the institution or through Studielink, an online centralized application procedure. The path you follow will very much depend on the university and the course to which you are applying. You may even be required to use a combination of the two, so check carefully with the institution. Certain oversubscribed courses in the Netherlands are deemed “numerous fixus”.

If you want to study on low tuition in Bulgaria, you’ll indeed find an impressive range of natural environments: from warm, sandy beaches to strikingly tall mountains and ski resorts – and it’s also a relatively low-cost international study destination. Founded in 681, Bulgaria notably is one of the oldest European countries. Its rich history has left behind many historical sites, and plenty of stories and perspectives to explore. Between 1946 and 1989 it might interest you to know that it was a single-party communist state, but since then has been governed as a democratic republic. In 2007, it became a member state of the European Union, making it even easier to travel to and around the country. Applying to Universities in Bulgaria You should apply directly to your chosen Bulgarian university. Most Bulgarian universities stipulate international applicants to provide copies of relevant documents, which would include a diploma or certificate proving successful completion of the previous stage of education, a medical certificate, a valid passport or ID, and an English language test result (if studying in English). Some universities on the other hand may ask you to sit an exam to test your Bulgarian or English language skills (depending on the language you intend to study in).Note that If you fail this exam, you may have the option to enroll in a year-long preparatory course studying either Bulgarian or English. The deadline for applying to universities in Bulgaria is around 30 September in the year before the course commences for English-taught courses, or 15 September for courses taught in Bulgarian. However, this may slightly vary from institution to institution Visas to Study in Bulgaria Please note that European Union citizens do not need a visa in order to study in Bulgaria. All that is required is a valid passport or ID and you’re good to go!

You’ll then receive a national identity card and temporary residence lasting up to five years. If you come from a non-EU country, you will need to apply for a Bulgarian student visa (D-type), which you can apply for either online or in person at your nearest Bulgarian embassy. The documents you’ll require will depend largely on your nationality, so for full details you should check with your Bulgarian embassy. However, the usual documents needed are: Acceptance letter from a Bulgarian university Photocopy of your passport, which should be valid for at least one year after your intended period of study ends Valid health insurance Bank document showing that you’ve paid the necessary upfront payment on tuition fees (typically half of an annual fee) A recent passport-sized color photograph, with a white background Photocopies of any previous visas you’ve had for travel to Bulgaria, the US or the UK, if applicable. After you arrive in Bulgaria, you must apply for a residency permit, which costs BGN 500 (~US$285), is valid for one year, and is renewable every year during your studies.
