Admission Requirements

Students on laptop checking admission requirements

Erasmus University College (EUC) welcomes applicants who are highly motivated, academically strong, and curious and open-minded. We strive for a diverse student body who are committed to expanding their intellectual horizons through a Liberal Arts & Sciences education. We evaluate applicants holistically, focusing not only on academic track record but also on motivation for the programme.

Motivation

We would like to hear from you about why you are motivated to study at EUC. In your application letter, please provide us with examples of your academic and non-academic interests and how they align with a Liberal Arts & Sciences education, so we can find out if our programme is a likely match for you. 

Your motivation letter (in English, maximum 600 words, please use the template that you can download below) should answer the following questions:

  1. What makes you a good candidate for successfully pursuing a Liberal Arts & Sciences degree?
  2. Why do you want to study Liberal Arts & Sciences at EUC?
  3. What additional information would you like the admissions officers to know when considering your application? (excluded from the word count)

Secondary school diploma

You are eligible for admission to EUC if you meet:

Since a number of our courses cover mathematics and statistics, mathematics proficiency is necessary for success in our programme. Additionally, since our programme is taught fully in English, proficiency in English is a strict requirement.

In the list below, you will find our admission requirements per secondary school diploma. If your diploma is not on the list, then don’t hesitate to contact our admissions office, as you may still be eligible for admission. If you don't meet the requirements, then there are several additional tests that you can take to demonstrate your academic capabilities:

  • Mathematics test: You can take the OMPT-A if you don't meet the mathematics requirement. Required score: minimum score of 70%.
    An OMPT-A test score older than two years is no longer considered valid by EUC.
  • English language proficiency test: You can take one of four tests if you don't meet the English requirement. Required scores:

    TOEFL-iBT: 100 with minimum subscores of 20. You can use the institution code C217 to have your score report sent to us.
    IELTS Academic: 7,0 with minimum subscores of 6,0
    C2 Proficiency or C1 Advanced: minimum overall score of 185
    LanguageCert: minimum score of 75 
    In all cases, test scores older than two years are no longer considered valid by EUC.

  • SAT or ACT: You can take one of these tests if you don't meet the average grade requirement. Please note that the SAT or ACT cannot compensate the minimum diploma requirements of the Erasmus University Rotterdam. 

Please note that the above-mentioned scores don't automatically qualify you for admission to EUC. We evaluate applicants holistically and on an individual basis.
