After MA selection guide

Have you been accepted to the MA in Development Studies?

If you have been selected please review this step by step guide concerning practical matters prior to your arrival at ISS.

After you have received the Letter of Admission (LoA),  your status in the admission portal will still show 'In Progress' until you arrive at ISS. Kindly ignore this status until you arrive.

This information may not apply to everyone, but if it applies to you, please have a look at the link below. If you have questions about financial matters, please email: admission@iss.nl

Once you have received information about your funding, be it a scholarship, partial scholarship, private savings, loan and so on, you must immediately inform the Admission Office of your situation. The deadline for this is mid-July.

  • If you have received your scholarship or have found funding, please inform the ISS Admission Office. They will then provide you with all the necessary information on visa, health insurance and accommodation.

  • If you are still searching for a scholarship, ISS has a large database of scholarships that you may be able to apply for. Please go to: www.iss.nl/scholarships. Kindly check your eligibility criteria carefully prior to submitting a scholarship application.

  • Please try to apply for as many scholarships as possible to increase your chances of receiving one.

In June / July you will receive further instructions on how to secure your accommodation in one of the ISS housing facilities. If you are planning to live outside the ISS campus, please visit our Alternative Housing page.
