Admission to the University of Amsterdam is difficult, particularly for highly sought-after courses. They demand high academic standing, fluency in English, and occasionally specialised subject knowledge. Your academic history and motivation letter are very important for master's programs. Although it's competitive, you have a good chance if you apply well and fulfill all the requirements.
