Testing for coronavirus
If you have symptoms such as a cold, cough, fever or sudden loss of smell or taste, you can get tested to see if you are infected with coronavirus. This will help us control the spread of the virus and protect one another. Read more about testing for COVID-19:https://www.government.nl/topics/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-test
Work and finances
We would like to point out that a solid financial situation is very important for you. There are limited possibilities to work in the Netherlands, and HKU is not allowed to support students financially. You need to be (financially) prepared to sudden changes on which you have to act on immediately.- Information about working during your study: https://studentportal.hku.nl/homeen/student-affairs/finances/work-information.htm
