Once you’ve enrolled at your dream university, it’s time to prepare for your arrival to the Netherlands! 

Let’s break down the main things to start with:

1 - Register at your municipality & get your BSN number 

Once arriving in the city you are going to live in, you are required to register yourself at the local municipality as soon as possible. 

Once you do this, you’ll receive your BSN number, your citizen service number. This is super important because you’ll need this number for important things like managing your taxes and opening a bank account.

2 - Apply for a DigID

Your DigID is like your digital passport. You can use this to access online government services like Student Finance DUO, Studielink, and tax websites. (Remember to complete Step 1 before doing this - you’ll need your BSN number to register!)

3 - Open a bank account 

Trust us when we say that if you don’t already have a Maestro debit card, you’re gonna have a hard time getting around. Several shops and grocery stores only accept these cards, so having a Dutch bank account is going to be a life saver. Some common Dutch bank accounts that are international student-friendly include ABN Amro, ING, and Rabobank. 

4 - Apply for Dutch health insurance

It’s mandatory to have Dutch health insurance while you live in the NL. Check out these companies with affordable insurance plans: Zilveren Kruis, Zorg en Zekerheid, Univé Zorg. 

Save yourself the stress and prepare early! And if you’re in doubt, feel free to dm us with your questions. We’re happy to help! ⭐️

What to visit in Nijmegen? 🚶🏼‍♀️
1. Kronenburger Park - the city park, close to the Central Railway Station and Lange Hezelstraat.
2. Saint Stephen’s Church - the oldest and largest church of Nijmegen. The church was bombarded in 1944, but rebuilt until 1969. 
3. Nijmegen railway bridge - the truss bridge spanning the River Waal that conecta Nijmegen to the town of Lent. 
4. Lange Hezelstraat - known as the oldest shopping street in the Netherlands.
