"If you're coming to the Netherlands and you don't expect the dutch.. what are you expecting?" Finally, a foreigner doing a vlog about studying in the Netherlands without complaining about "oh it's all that friendly" or "Oh I couldn't socialize and felt left out" because "Dutch" I mean even the whole country can speak English doesn't mean they are obliged to, if you go to someone else country you shouldn't expect them to adapt to you, you should try to adapt to them. Especially if it's a long period stay.
Hahahaha, coming from Croatia....i feel you...most English speakers coming to live in Croatia never learn the language....i get that it's one of the harder Slavic languages but still.... xD
Not all want to stay there forever but only couple of years,hence you guys can be a lil more friendly to talk to English sometimes if you know it.Obviously they will learn eventually lil by lil but at first,it must be hard to adapt.
Totally agree with everything that you said in the video 😌! Sadly also with the way some Dutch people act when international people around them. I think is also because of the language barrier, but still it's sad that they don't keep trying to talk to them in English!
@@mariadebake5483 If everyone keeps this energy then people would never be able to communicate because everyone would want to speak their language. English is the official language and we have to learn it so we can communicate around the world. I don’t expect people coming in my country to learn my language especially if they’re staying temporarily.
@@mariadebake5483 it was voted years ago wdym? english language is the official language of communication for the most places. That’s why most people have learnt to speak the language and its knowledge is required almost everywhere.
@@milenamitiko so so soooooo sorry for my late response. I mean what did you do to overcome difficult feelings about being new to Erasmus and not getting used to the university's way of learning, teaching. I also plan to apply Erasmus next year and I'm quite nervous about that...
Hi thanks for all of this information it’s helped too much for me. Can you talk about your application process because i’m really want to study in erasmus university but i don’t have any idea what should i pay attention to when i write a motivation letter. If you can talk about this it’s definitely more helps for us ❤️
Glad to hear that the video is informative!! I made a video on how to write a motivation letter, step by step, so if you want to go check it out I hope it helps 😊😊
Hi, I’m currently studying in Luxembourg and I will soon get my European baccalaureate in 2 years, I personally can only speak English and French so I was wondering if the bachelor medicine courses are taught in English. One big issue I have is that I can’t speak Dutch.
Hiii in general Erasmus does offer a lot of english-taught courses but I am not sure about medicine... I recommend you check out the Erasmus MC website and more info on the taught-language should be there!
hiii! thanks a lot for all your videos! they are really helpful. when you refer to "international students" do you also mean EU students, or just non-EU students?
So it’s not like U.K? I’ve heard that out there the first year is easier so that you can settle in and have “more social life” or whatever. Wow this seems much harder but at the same time the intentions are clear I guess
Heyyy IBEB also has the whole "binding study advice" (BSA) which not all unis have, which basically means you can't fail any class (after retakes and compensations etc) so you really gotta keep at it at all time!
@@milenamitiko the BSA counts at almost all universities and "hbo's" in the first year. It depends on which course you're taking, most of the time you need to get 45 to 60 ECTS (of the 60 ECTS) within the first year in order to get a positive advice. Check the OER for your university for more information.
Milena, hi! Thank you for all your videos, really useful ❤I'm now also applying for Economics and Business, but for Master's programme. Do you by any case know if it is possible to apply now if I will get my diploma in summer? How do students usually do in such cases? (Because I'm finishing now Bachelor in Ukraine)
Hi,just got accepted to the IBEB at ESE. So happy. Just wondering if you knew Esade or IE. If yes, in terms of recognition, which one is the best? Is ESE less recognized than RSM? Thank you so much for these responses
Hey Victor congratulations on getting into IBEB! I'm assuming you mean Esade and IE Business schools, in that case I wouldn't know how to compare them to ESE since you would probably compare them to RSM. If you'd like I can put you in contact with some RSM students who could give you an answer. That also applies to the comparison between ESE and RSM, since they are both are highly recognised in their own fields. But if you'd like to hear my opinion on this feel free to message me on instagram :)
Hello guys! I wish y'all can help me out or something about applying in different unis here in Amsterdam. Because i am planning on studying in Netherlands but I don't know how everything works. And this uni is one of my choices. I wish some of you can help me out if you're applying as well. Thanks!
Hi, I'm currently doing IB and I'm in the 11th grade. I was wondering if you could help me understand the grades one would need to get into Erasmus university. I wanna take up the same course as you, so it would really be helpful. Thank you :)
Hi Brooklyn! Great to hear that you are interest in Erasmus! I'll add the link to the Erasmus website where they talk about IBEB grade requirements. Good luck with your studies! www.eur.nl/en/bachelor/international-bachelor-economics-and-business-economics/admission
@@milenamitiko hi. I’m also doing IB, and I want to go to IBEB. I’m just wondering if I can apply with my predicted grades, or if I have to use my term grades.
@@lowheaven1261 all universities are pretty much considered equally good. At least in The Netherlands, future employers care about your grades and extracurricular activities. Doesn’t matter what university.
Hi I am an IB diploma student and currently in my last year and I am considering applying but I took applications and interpretations SL as my math subject, and I know that some universities don’t accept that. Do you think I could still apply?
Oi, Milena! Tudo bem? Eu planejo fazer IBCOM na Erasmus e tenho algumas perguntinhas! Se vc pudesse me ajudar eu ficaria muito grata! Obrigada desde de já :)

Hi Milena!!! I'm Bruna, the Brazilian student that reached out to you via the university's website!! This was very helpful!
Hey! Are you also applying for IBEB? :)
Hii Bruna! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment I appreciate it! I'm glad the video was helpful :))
this was on my recommended omg :''D also an ibeb year 2 student here
Yesss Hiii! I think we were just in a lecture together hahaha
Nice video! I actually am a Dutch student at RSM, so it's very interesting to hear about your experiences and your perspective!
That's awesome! Thank you for taking the time to listen !!
what about never finding a spot in library or mandatory 9am tutorials in g-building where it smells like spilled coffee and old socks
very helpful! you have a very rational perspective, thanks

Try to speak dutch to them. Why should we do the adapting? We are not the visitors here, you are!
