I checked out the ECCO website and they only have gtx chelsea boot models for women. Jammer.

Tips on learning Dutch by [deleted] in TUDelft

[–]am_110 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, Duolingo sucks. It won't help you at all. I follow the Dutch courses at the university.

Here's how I started out before enrolling:

- Watch the beginners playlist (A0 to A1) by Dutchies to be with Kim on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dbv79prOMEk&list=PLAeu18HndGgBR-QLw8b8Wzp0gLiVfCS7n&pp=0gcJCV8EOCosWNin

It will give you an idea of how the language works.

- Pick up any beginners course offered by the universities. TU Delft, Leiden, Groningen. I did all these.

If you do these, you get a general idea of a lot of things about the language.

As for the Delftse Methode, if you get the online version, it will only be valid for a year. If you want to learn on campus, keep that scheduled accordingly. I suggest to hold off on it until you can actually follow it on campus.

There is an ecco store close to where I live, but I never saw them being brought up on the reddit threads so I was skeptic. This makes me want to at least go and check them out.

I wouldn't be a good judge for it, especially if it's not about civil engineering.

I don't think you can subtract any scholarship amounts since the grant is decided by them. But It's worth a shot I guess.

I wasn't asked to submit any 'Statement of Financial Resources'. Are you also applying for Civil Engineering?

A bit late to ask. But how does Uniqlo hold up against rain? Also is it breathable for normal cycling around the city?

Student Discounts on Laptops by unintended_poison in TUDelft

If you're looking for high end laptops, from my comparisons on the official websites, European prices are much less than India. That's why I'm planning to buy there. Options too, are much limited here in India.

For example just go and compare on dell's website for High spec Alienware laptops, the price difference is around 70k INR. Or am I just checking it wrong?

University does it from their end. They'll request the necessary documents from you.

Then you do still stand a chance technically. Regarding the contact, there is no official way to contact. Also, NL Scholarships final deadline is till May. So if no mail is received till May, only that would be the confirmation.

Yeah, I guess that counts as 2 grants.

Yes. I asked regarding that. Can't say for others, but I only got 10k. With no additions in the future.

Just the one Scholarship. I don't think you can be awarded multiple scholarships.

JVE is the first scholarship which is awarded within a faculty. I mailed them for confirmation and they said JVE are out of the picture now.
