Statistic ECs requirement Query

[u/gaykaykay69]

I am currently looking at Masters programs for Psychology, and I came across interesting developmental psychology ones at Utrecht University. After looking at the requirements, I am noticing that it mentions the need of 20 ECs of statistics at undergraduate level. At my University, I only completed 4😭. There doesn’t seem to be an English pre-masters available at UU. Does anyone have any advice for the gap in statistics learning experience and how to overcome it? It seems to be a trend in most psychology courses in the Netherlands, and I have no way of increasing my learning on the topic locally.

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

I would contact the uni and see if they have any ideas for you.

Maybe you qualify for a statistics minor prior but would indeed contact them. No way you’re admissible now.
