Academic sessions around the world mostly commence in the middle of September and early October for late entries. January admissions are also available in some institutions for specific courses. In order to leave ample duration between applying for admissions, being granted a visa and settling in by resumption day, it is advisable to apply as early as possible. As soon as you and / or your sponsor are sure you definitely wish to and are able seek a foreign education, advisably three months before your preferred resumption date.

Our Partners: In Holland University of Applied Sciences, Netherlands
About In Holland

InHolland presents itself as ambitious, innovative, and internationally oriented. It offers programs in the fields of Economics,Law,Management,Communication, Art (School of Music), Health Care, Environment Studies, Education, Horlticulture, Information Technology, International Business, Logistics Management, Marketing and Aeronautical Engineering in location Delft.
Location
On a world map, the Netherlands is very small. The longest distance you can drive from the north to the south will take about four hours. To the east the Netherlands borders Germany, to the south Belgium, and to the north and west the North Sea. Several features of the landscape will strike you immediately. To start with, it is extremely flat. There are a few hills in the southeast corner of the country, but even they barely infringe on the broad, unbroken expanse of sky that is so characteristic of Dutch landscape painting.
You will find that you can live very easily in the Netherlands without a car. The public transportation network extends to every remote corner and although train and bus fares are not cheap, they are still nowhere near as expensive as buying and maintaining a car.

We offer three intakes per year for many of our Pathways, and offer English Language at each of these intakes where required. This allows us to tailor make Pathways according to individual students' academic background and their level of English Language competency.
3) Small group teaching and individual attention from dedicated university lecturers
Many international students find the transition to university studies quite difficult to deal with, particularly as international students studying at university level in the UK
At HIBT all of our students come from international backgrounds and we ensure that all of our class sizes are small, so that our students get the opportunity to build up confidence with the study methods and to ensure that they all receive as much attention as possible when settling into the University of Hertfordshire
Many international students worry that they may not be able to understand their lecturers when they first start at University. They also sometimes worry that the lecturer might not understand them. All students at HIBT are international students. We therefore select teachers who have experience in dealing with international students and who are culturally sensitive.
