General requirements

In order to enrol in an academic Bachelor's programme, you need to have (at least) a secondary education degree which entitles you to enrol in a comparable programme in a university of the country in which the degree was conferred.

Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
Liability
Home contents and baggage
Accidents
Legal aid

We partnered with Aon to provide you with the best affordable student insurance, for a carefree experience away from home.
