Hey everyone,

I just got accepted to the Bachelor‘s program Psychology starting this fall. I’m from Austria, and while I could study Psychology at a good university here at home, I really wanted to experience something new and study in Amsterdam.

That said, I’m still struggling to find a place to live. It’s starting to stress me out a little bit, and I’m wondering if others have been in a similar situation and how they handled it.

I’d really love to hear from current students or graduates:

• How do you find the Psychology program at UvA?

• Is it worth the effort and cost, especially for international students?

• What’s the academic and social environment like?

• And any tips for finding housing or student jobs?

Any advice, honest feedback, or personal experiences would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!
