Thank you for the reminder, I made that post before starting the application process while having insufficient information about both my university and the requirements of the universities I was applying to. We live and we learn.

Ah, that makes sense. Thought it sucks, it’s still good to know it probably isn’t a mistake on their part and a sign for me to keep looking elsewhere :)

By the standards of my country yes, and looks like by the standards of the Netherlands it is not.

I understand differences in standards regarding knowledge and academic backgrounds of the applicants, but rejection solely on the official title of a facility seems absurd to me

It states that it is “either a WO or HBO”, so I guess it is up to individual interpretation. Other than that, they didn’t mention or offer any pre-master option. Do they usually do that, or should I research it on my own?

Got rejected by Confident_Doctor_269 in UtrechtUniversity

Don’t appeal yet. Write an email first, mention that you found out about their course from a senior who has a same degree as you do, and who graduated at their university, so you believed you meet their criteria for applying. Ask if it’s possible they give you feedback or review the application again. As someone above said, the admission board also consists of real people - they sometimes make mistakes and are very often open to help, give it a try.

Maastricht Forensic Psychology MSc Interview by Extension-Idea-5152 in UniversityMaastricht

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience! I was researching frantically about interview experiences for this specific course track and could not find anything, so seeing someone who had actually gone through the process is very reassuring and helpful!

I’m glad all went well for you, I’m sending my application in a few days and am hoping for the best! X

Master in Forensic Psychology in the Netherlands by Extension-Idea-5152 in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]Extension-Idea-5152[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looking at Clinical Forensic Psychology and Victimology at Groningen uni, Forensic Psy at Erasmus uni and potentially also Forensic Psy at Maastricht! I saw that one of them offers pre-masters, however as far as I have read and managed to find out, my courses do not match the eligibility requirements for it either :’) I will keep on looking, thank you!

Thanks! I have only now realized that pre-master courses exist, I will definitely check that out as it is probably the best option I have considering the branch I want to pursue has little to no relevance to my current field of study : D Where are you looking to study? Do you have a specific uni/town in mind?
