Phase 2: Additional information

6. Studielink cannot check your personal details and previous diploma(s). Within a few days of receiving your application, Windesheim Honours College will contact you and request for additional information, like copies of your diplomas. We will send you all the information you need to complete your application for Windesheim Honours College, the ‘interview preparation package’, containing information about the recommendations and your letter of motivation.

7. In your letter of motivation you should describe who you are, why you want to study with us, what specialization you’re interested in and what your ambitions are upon graduation. We do not only want to know whether you meet our expectations, but also if we meet yours!

8. The interview preparation package contains two forms for recommendations, one from for instance a former teacher and one from a supervisor from volunteer work for example. This is to get an idea of your academic and professional attitude.

9. After the assessment of your application package, you will receive an invitation for an intake interview. If you are not able to travel to Zwolle, the interview can be conducted via Skype. During this interview, we want to get to know you better. We will ask you several questions, based on the content of your letters. This is also your opportunity to ask us all your remaining questions.

10. After the interview, you will receive a letter about whether you qualify for admission.
