Maastricht Applicants 2012?

Hey! Just wondering when students from the UK should start applying for Masstricht I'm starting my last year of high school now (A levels) but we start UCAS applications at the start of the year in September so would I start applying at the same time as my UCAS applications to study European Law in 2013?

Any help/information would be great!

Is it hard to get into Maastricht or other dutch unis such as Amsterdam, what a level grades do you need?

For those that have got rooms already, how did you go about doing this? Am I right that if you use wmm.nl you have to pay one month's rent as a non-refundable fee, or is it just a deposit? Do the properties on maastrichthousing also have this commission when I sign up? And if I sign up to maastrichthousing are all the properties that I can see now available or are some already rented? I'm a bit put out by having to pay a fee just to be able to go in for a room, but I guess I need to get one soon...

Also, if anyone here has studied at Maastricht before, where would the best place be for a Master's student to get a room, in terms of both location and website? I'm guessing the majority of places will be filled with undergraduates but might be nice to live with other Master's students.

Has anybody who has applied for International Business received the letter regarding the decentralised selection to confirm their place? I haven't received anything since I got my ranking number.

On maastrichthousing (assuming you go for uni managed) you only pay the 35Euro membership for 3 years plus the daily cost and also a cleaning fee of around 75Euro for the end. The initial deposit i believe acts as the last months rent.

If you haven't signed up yet and want to know what is available (I assume you are a new bachelors student), I can filter my results as a paid member on MaastrichtHousing and send you a list of the results.

Cheers.

Hey you can check out the groups on Facebook Rooms/ Kamer/ Zimmer in Maastricht; Maastricht Student Rooms and Flat Hunting Maastricht. People post pictures with prices of their rooms to let/sublet. Good luck!


Is it nice?




Are you in the science programme? What do you think about it?


Yay! I'm going to MSC let us know all you find out on your trip.

Hey
I've finally decided that I will go to Maastricht come September!
I was hoping that any of you who are starting this year could DM me or something? I'd quite like to get to know some of the International students who will be going. I'm slightly terrified of moving to a new country where I don't know anyone.
I hope i don't sound like a creep....


Edit: where would be the best area for housing? I have left everything a little late and I need some help?

Hey, I'm finding out for you whether the room's still available. It's close to MSC - should be about 5-10 minutes by bike.


Tell me about your country. (I would Wikipedia it but I'd prefer to hear from you)

I am seriously considering to study there... At MSC (maastricht science programme)!!
I think I will go to Maastricht the next week to visit the faculty, the city and to do what I need for the enrollment and rent of a room or studio!

H i think the main way for finding accommodation is the website maastrichthousing.com, but i've been looking for somewhere on there for a month and haven't found anything close enough, they put properties up that are in Belgium for some reason. But there is apparently a facebook page that people post empty rooms on, im trying to get a studio but anywhere not too small would be good
Are you going to INKOM?

All you need is just to have the right subjects to be done at an A-level and all they require you is to pass. For example, I was thinking of going to study medicine in groningen university and all they needed was a pass at an A-level for the subjects of math, chemistry, biology and physics and then you will be considered. I would say it is still hard because you still want to get excellent grades, the better you do on the A-level the more likely it is possible but there are other requirements you need to have done.

The Maastricht housing site currently has 5 rooms remaining for bachelors students that are actually university managed and furnished for a 12 month period...
3 at Tongerseweg
1 at Wardehofplein
1 at Prof Pieter Willemsstraat

All the other rooms are either booked or would seem to be private and unfurnished for the most part - ie on top of the 35Euro fee for the Maastrichthousing site I think that you would then have to pay an agency fee.

The fbook group is rooms / kamer / zimmer in Maastricht IIRC.

Its getting closer now :O
