You are more likely to be successful in your studies, if you choose the right discipline. Therefore, UvA Matching is an essential part of your enrollment in a Bachelor’s programme. Through Matching, you familiarize yourself with the programme, before it begins. Participation in UvA Matching is mandatory for all students.

Online

The online Matching will take place in the first weeks of June 2024. There will be deadlines on 5 and 9 and 12 June 2024 and there will be a wrap up (online) meeting. As of 6 May 2024 the study material will already be available on Canvas (please see below) and you will be able to start working on your assignments.

If you have applied for this program and you have received a positive admission decision, you can sign up for the course ‘matching’ via the ‘checklist application’. You will receive an e-mail with detailed information about the Matching process in May 2024.

The matching procedure takes place through our online learning platform Canvas. Here, you can:

• read the instructions;
• study the literature;
• watch an online lecture on the same topic;
• submit your written Matching assignments;
• Upon completion of the Matching exam, you will receive your grade. Thereafter, you will receive your official personal (non-binding) matching advice on the basis of your test results. Please remember that participation in UvA Matching is mandatory for all students.
