Procedures for students

Procedure to be recognised as a student with fewer opportunities

This institution has not provided information about how to be recognised as a student with fewer opportunities.

Procedure to be recognised as a student with a disability

When requesting facilities due to a disability, this request must be supported by a certificate completed by a doctor or other expert. More information can be found under "necessary documents to provide".

After approval, the information is passed on to the relevant study program supervisor to draw up a contract. 

For most disabilities we use the documents of the VLOR, but you can also submit your own documents if they meet certain criteria. The criteria per disability can be found in the VLOR-manual.

In discussion with your contacts from the international office and disability office, the thresholds you may experience are discussed. Based on your needs a number of individualised facilities are selected. We coordinate between your needs and the practical and organizational feasibility of meeting them within your program. 

This institution has not provided information about if the procedure applies for both local and international students
