Independent student (free mover)

If your university does not have a formal exchange agreement with the University of Amsterdam, you may apply to study at the UvA as an independent visiting student (free mover). Free movers are non-degree seeking, fee-paying visiting students. You may attend the UvA for a maximum of two semesters (12 months).

Economics and Business

Currently, this is the only Faculty Level Exchange programme that accepts applications by independent students. For more information on the study programme, entry requirements, application procedure and costs, please check the Exchange programme page of Economics and Business.

UvA degree programmes

If you are interested in obtaining a full degree at the University of Amsterdam, you can enrol in in one of the English-taught Bachelor’s or Master's programmes.
