International Student Associations

International student association

Our student community is incredibly diverse, with over 4,000 international students from over 120 countries. Find friends from a similar background or meet people from different cultures by joining one of our many international student associations. Student associations offer students a social place next to their studies. Through different connections – like a ‘jaarclub’, your house or ‘dispuut’ – students can meet fellow students from different years and join each other for example in study groups in the library. Next to this student associations offer multiple ways to spike up your organizational skills and to develop yourself in different committees and boards. In Groningen there are a lot of different student associations that you can be a member of an some of them are hundreds of years old.

Next to the general student associations there are also associations with a religious or a philosophical background.
