After you register in Studielink, the next step is to complete your application in SIS under ‘My Applications’. SIS is the online system that the Admissions Office uses to review your previous education and check if you meet the entry requirements. The application for the September 2025 intake is open until 15 January 2025.

Are you eligible?

The Admissions Office can only assess your eligibility once your application is complete. Your eligibility depends on the programme's entry requirements. After reviewing your complete application, the Admissions Office will notify you of their decision by email.

How to submit a complete application in SIS in 3 steps:

1. Log in to SIS with your UvAnetID (student number)

After registering in Studielink you receive your UvAnetID (student number), this may take up to 48 hours. With this UvAnetID you can log in to SIS. In SIS you have to select 'My Applications' to fill out and submit the application form before the application deadline.
