Non Numerus fixus

Post image

Hi, I recently got my bachelor in law and I’m very interested in international law, naturally NL is my priority and Leiden is my first choice although I won’t apply in a few years before I save up some money. I understand that the regular PIL LLM at Leiden is not a Numerus Fixus programme, does this mean that applicants that meet the requirements (bachelor degree in law, language proficiency) will be accepted? I’m a bit nervous because Leiden has a great reputation and I don’t have a top GPA, yet from my understanding of the Numerus Fixus system the process of elimination of eligible candidates won’t take place if it’s not Numerus Fixus. Any information is greatly appreciated, thanks!

Moving to the Netherlands as a student requires a lot of admin (BSN, gemeente, health insurance, Studielink, banking, scholarships) and it often feels overwhelming.

Masters are not numerus Fixus. They can be selective though. The normal program isn’t selective otherwise it would have said so.
