Hi, anyone here can recommend me study agent dealing with Netherlands uni?

Thank you dear :-)
Yes very hard to find study agent in Malaysia deals with univ in Netherlands, mostly they deal with UK & Australia...

If u need a agent stay away from such countries
U need to be independent and resourceful, cannot even handle the paper work here go there you need a agent to do teach u banking? Renting, Buy food? Daily living? No offense U need a Dutch baby sitter then if u cannot even perform this baby step

Hi,

I'm a Malaysian student in The Netherlands and am enjoying it!  Are there others around as well?

Not many people are aware that many 'big' international companies such as Shell, Unilever, Philips, ING etc. are actually Dutch.

Education here is definitely hands-on and you not only learn theory, you also learn how to apply it. Holland is relatively new to Malaysians but it's really starting to get popular. Why not differentiate yourself from Australian/American/ UK graduates?

Benefits:

i) very practical, you learn a lot of soft skills
ii) get experience with companies
iii) great student body, very international yet close at my school
iv) open people, English is widely spoken
v) central location, cheap flights to cities like London (bought once for 20 euro,return! sometimes can get for 5 euro...), Prague, Rome etc.
vi) study grants provided by some schools
vii) can start after SPM for certain courses (4-year courses. No use taking certain diplomas/SAM/Pre-U etc as you may not get exemptions)
viii) safe, very low crime rate

and particularly attractive for some Malaysians:

as a graduate from a Dutch uni, you are allowed to stay an additional 1 year to look for a job after graduation.

Cons:

i) no 2+1, 3+1, 2+2 or whatever available yet.
ii) Limited availability of English programmes
iii) Not many Malaysians here (this could be a pro as well!)

If you're already studying in NL or are interested in studying in NL, do leave a message here/PM me:)

Even The Netherlands is limiting the possible reasons one can have dual nationality but in my case, I can still get la;) It is true that Malaysia does not allow it. Initially, I said NEVER! I will never give up my Malaysian nationality but precisely because one cannot have 2 passports, I might have no choice but to apply for a Dutch passport. The reason is, it's just so much easier to travel (esp business trips), I can live anywhere in the EU and so that I can have a say (vote). It makes sense since I do live here now but it's not something I am ready to do just yet as I do not speak Dutch fluently (therefore personally feel like I can consider myself 'Dutch') and because I can never get the Malaysian passport back. I mean, say la..what if I get divorced in the future and want to go back to Malaysia to take care of my parents?

It's been a while since I've been online.

I graduated some time back, and am still in NL. Life is busy but good.

Let me know if anyone has questions.
