Application deadlines

The degree programmes at the University of Groningen have a limited number of starting dates per academic year with their own application deadline.

You can also find the deadlines on the programme page of each Bachelor's or Master's programme.

What happens when the deadline has passed?

Although you will still be able to apply for the programme in Studielink, your application will not be processed after the application deadline has passed. You will have to apply for the next intake instead.
