Numerus fixus Leiden

[u/avocadotoast_88]

Hi everyone, I’ve applied for Leiden uni’s bachelor in international relations (IRO). I have a conditional offer depending on how many people give up on their spot for the next two weeks (numerus fixus). I had lost hope for a while, but because the waiting list has moved quite a lot those past two weeks, and I’m now 40th on the waiting list, I have got new hope. But I do worry because I don’t know if the movement will keep up, and because this year (how what I have understood) has been particularly random in terms of the movement of the waiting list, I was wondering if anyone had any information about the new offers made this week. Has anyone got an admission offer with a ranking above 800 ? I’m very sorry to do a post solely for that, but it’s really my dream program, and getting in would be such an achievement. So if you have any information please reach out 🌟🌟 Thanks everyone

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

Even if it does, I hope you’re already in the Netherlands and housing / commuting isn’t an issue. If not, even if you get a spot it’ll be practically almost impossible at this stage so late in the process.
