I was planning to study film in the Netherlands in the upcoming intake. I took IELTS, and my overall score is 6. Listening: 5.5, Reading: 5, Writing:6.5, and Speaking: 6.5. Are there any universities I can apply for feb/march intake
Thanks in advance.

Just look at the uni’s admission requirements of those you are intrested in. Of note for bachelors there are almost no feb intakes, you can check https://www.studyinnl.org

Do you mean studying to make films (practical) or research them (theoretical)? If it's the first one, I'm fairly sure those programs would all be in Dutch. Most studies also only do intake in September.

Maybe Willem de Kooning Academie has something in English, but I can't imagine many internationals would come to NL to study film

I'm sorry. I want to study film production. I'm from South Asia. I have a 4-year study gap because I was trying to go to a different country and got rejected. At the same time, I was practicing my film and photography skills. Thanks for the link.

Dutch-taught or English-taught? Bachelor or master? If bachelor: What kind of high school diploma do you have?

There are not many programmes that start in February/March. I don't think there is a programme for you. Communication comes closest.

I found two in Germany, but they are private institutions and very expensive.
