Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam) Reviews and Ratings

• Around 40–60 percent of students find it easy to get a job in the Netherlands or other parts of Europe with a few months of searching. Most of the students are well equipped to find a job in their home country, if not in the Netherlands.
• The average range of salary could go from 50,000 to 90,000 euros in a year. Students find jobs at a higher rate through networking and building good contacts. LinkedIn and other websites work as well.

• The VU was very kind and offered to look for accommodation for us in the very elusive housing market in the Netherlands.
• They asked us to pay a very steep fee though, but listed accommodation for us through a third-party source.
• My recommendation is to start looking as early as possible on multiple sites, since it is VERY difficult to find a house here.

Overall the experience in terms of life at University as a student was amazing. But getting a job during and after is an issue because of first, higher language requirements being in health care sector.
