Pre-University Challenges

We have something exciting in store for you – our Pre-University Challenges! Designed by our students and lecturers, these challenges offer you a glimpse into the LAS programme while giving you the chance to win a UCG or Caerus hoodie at the start of the academic year.

How does it work?
We have six challenges lined up for you, with a new one published every three weeks. You can take part in as many as you like, but if you complete at least five out of the six, you’ll be entered into a raffle to win one of four hoodies! This raffle will take place during Introduction Week. You have until 1 August to take part in the challenges.

The challenges will be available on this website and shared via our Instagram and group chat - so stay tuned!

Most importantly, have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to email us.

Offer Holder Day: 16 June 2025

To give you a taste of what it is like to be a student at UCG, you will be invited to our Offer Holder Day. During the Offer Holder Day, you will tour the UCG campus, our student housing and you will participate in an activity to get to know the city of Groningen.

You will attend a lecture from one of our academics and you get the chance to see what our students worked on this last year, as Project Presentation Day is on the same day. You will also have lunch with our academic staff, UCG students and UCG's study Association: Caerus.

These days are perfect to experience what it is like to study at University College Groningen and meet your future classmates! You will receive more specific event details later on.
