Creative Writing - Bachelor - Arnhem

Admission

After your application via Studielink, you will receive an email with instructions explaining how the admission process works. Admission is a way to get to know each other: to see whether you are a good fit for the programme, and for you to see whether this programme is what you are looking for. On this page you can read what admission involves and what you need to submit.

What do we look for?

  • Imagination
  • Style and sentence structure
  • Ability to reflect
  • Attitude
  • Professional potential

First round

For the first round of admission, you submit a completed questionnaire, one or more home assignments and a motivation letter digitally. If your work makes an impression, you will be invited to the second round: the admission day.

Second round

During this first selection day, you will take part in an extended workshop in which we look at your attitude, style and ability to collaborate. Based on your participation, we decide whether you proceed to the third round. This takes place on 31 March and 1 April 2026.

Third round

The final selection round consists of two days. On the first day, you will again take part in workshops. On the second day, you will work in a group and have a personal interview with two lecturers and a student. During this conversation, you will discuss your motivation, assignments and questionnaire. This takes place on 15 April and 17 April 2026.

To be eligible for admission, you must be available on all of these days.
