Studielink is the common registration and enrolment application system for all non-private institutions of higher education in the Netherlands.

• Official residents of the Netherlands have to use their DigiD to login to Studielink.
• International students create an account with their own username and password.
  Create a Studielink account: provide personal details (as stated in your passport or ID card) and previous educational information (studies, diplomas and exam results).
• Once your account is created, you can ‘add a new enrolment application’. Indicate the study programme of your choice from the list generated when you choose ‘Royal Academy of Art / Royal Conservatoire’ in the drop down menu 'Educational Institution'. Follow carefully the steps and at the end confirm your application.

Detailed instructions are provided on the website of Studielink to assist you with the procedure.

Start your application via Studielink

Please note: you must also follow the application procedure in step 2 to be considered for admission. Once you've submitted your application in Studielink, you will receive an automatic reply in your mailbox with the subject "Upload the required documents". Check your spam box if you have not received it within a day.

Registration in Studielink only is not sufficient. Both processes must be completed by the deadlines stated above.

After your enrolment via Studielink is confirmed, you will receive an e-mail by the Student Administration of the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague. In this e-mail, you’ll find your personal login info, which will grant you access to the academy’s own online application system Osiris, where you can add a link to your digital submission.

We ask you to prepare a Dropbox folder with all the material inside of it. We explicitly don’t want you to share the folder with us. In the application procedure there will be a field where you can add the url-link of your Dropbox folder. Please send this Dropbox url-link to Admissions staff too.

All written materials should be in Dutch or English. Detailed information about the requested material can be found under the Specific requirements section on the Admission requirements page.

You will be able to adjust and work on your dropbox folder all the way until the 1^st of March. Even once you have finalised the entire registration, you can still adjust and add things to your digital submission.

If you have any questions regarding the ArtScience programme and/or the admission process please contact the Interfaculty Admissions staff.

Selected candidates will be invited to an admission interview.

You will receive a notification whether you will be invited for an interview mid March 2024. The interviews will be planned in the period from 25 March to 5 April 2024.

You will receive the results of your entrance exam mid April 2024.

After the admission interview you will be informed whether or not you are admitted to our programme. All students who are offered a spot into our programme will need to upload some supporting documents to complete their enrolment. These documents include:
