WHAT YOU'LL GET
MUNICIPALITY/BSN REGISTRATION
When you arrive in the Netherlands, the first thing everyone tells you to do is get a BSN. Unfortunately, the process isn't that easy if you don't speak Dutch. Let us guide you through it from start to finish, and you'll have a BSN & DigiD in no time.
A DUTCH BANK ACCOUNT
So many banks need you to make an appointment then go to the branch and sit for hours while they check all of your paperwork. We promise you will have a Dutch bank account the same day you sign up, and it'll have iDEAL.
HEALTH INSURANCE
Everyone living in the Netherlands needs to have health insurance and if you don't get it you're liable to be fined by the government. We'll help sign you up to one of the best English-speaking insurance companies in the country.
UP TO €1000/MONTH FROM DUO
If you are from an EU/EEA country then you can get up to €1000 per month in funding from DUO! The process can be time-consuming so we'll help you with the entire application and you'll have the money in your new Dutch bank account before you know it.
FREE PUBLIC TRANSPORT
DUO isn't just about money. One of the most important services they provide is 100% free public transport throughout the Netherlands. So whether you want to see the hills of Maastricht, or the beaches of Friesland, free public transport will get you there in quickly and comfortably.
YOUR VERY OWN BIKE
Welcome to Dutch life. We cycle everywhere, so you probably need your own bike, right? We'll get you set up with a bike that will be swapped if anything ever happens to it. Burst tyre or busted light? It'll be swapped within 24 hours! Before you know it you'll be riding in style.
You'll get lots more than this for only €59, so get in touch and we'll go over everything!

SO, WHY GO WITH US?
We're students just like you.. We came to the Netherlands from other countries, and we understand that moving to a new country can be really stressful and bureaucratic - especially here. That's why we decided to start helping people settle in the Netherlands.
When you sign up, you can be assured that we will be here for you throughout your study journey. You'll get an advisor assigned to you and you'll only ever speak to them, so there's no need to explain your situation over and over to different people. Of course, before you sign up we'll have a chat with you on whichever platform is convenient for you, where we'll go through everything you can expect from us.
Not only this but all of our profits are donated to good causes, from reforestation to fighting inequality worldwide.
With every new sign up we plant at least one new tree, but it's very often many more than this.

WORKING PARTNERS
Things here work a little bit like a cake recipe, in that we need lots of ingredients to create a final product. We work with lots of different partners to make sure we can give you the best possible service. From the municipalities all the way through to energy suppliers, we work with anyone who will help make your life easier here while you study.
Here are just a few of our partners:
Thanks for everything you guys did for me! I had no idea how to do all of the paperwork with the municipality to get my BSN or even how to open a bank account because when I went to ING they needed lots of proof from me. Now I do my studies with no problems.
Kevin Wong /MSc Student
It was a complete pain in the arse when I got to Rotterdam. I had to get a phone number, a bsn, a bank account and try to apply for student finance. I don't speak Dutch so I had no idea what to do before you helped me out. Thanks big time :)
