ABS campus
The campus of the educational institution is located in Nijmegen. This opens up all the delights of life in a big city for students: a rich infrastructure, a large selection of entertainment, convenient transport, as well as more opportunities for internships or part-time jobs. However, for some students, such an abundance of opportunities can be distracting. University students have access to the library. It contains a collection of scientific papers, textbooks and fiction. Foreigners who come to ABS through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
After graduation, students are allowed to stay in Netherlands for a year. During this time, graduates can find a job and change their student visa to a work one. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
