Required documents
When you apply for admission, you’ll be asked to submit several documents. The documents that are required depend on your educational background and chosen study programme.
Note: If you have a Dutch diploma that grants direct admission, you will generally not be asked to submit additional documents.
If you are a non-EU/EEA national already living in the Netherlands, upload copies of both sides of your Dutch residence permit.
You can apply for admission before receiving the results of your English language test. However, a sufficient result will then be a condition of your eventual admission. Of course, if you already have your English language test results, you can upload them directly.
- Please upload your academic records of all previous secondary and higher education (completed and uncompleted).
- Digital copies of diplomas and transcripts are initially required. Once you have been admitted, we will inform you how to submit certified copies so we can verify your documents.
- The documents must be in the original language. If they are not in English, Dutch, German or French, they must be accompanied by official translations into one of these languages.
- If you have not yet completed your current programme, state your expected graduation date and submit copies of all transcripts obtained to date plus a list of subjects still to be completed.
- For students with a refugee background who do not have verifiable documentation of their previous education, Leiden University offers an alternative assessment procedure. If this applies to you, make sure to upload a detailed CV containing an explanation of which documents you have and detailed information on all education attended.
- Language proficiency (if applicable)
