Governance of Violence (MSc)
Required documents
When you apply for admission, you'll be asked to submit several documents.
Note: If you have a Dutch diploma that grants direct admission, you will generally not be asked to submit additional documents.
Required application documents
You’ll need to submit the following documents:
If you are a non-EU/EEA national already living in the Netherlands, upload copies of both sides of your Dutch residence permit.
Your CV (curriculum vitae) must be written in English and should contain your basic personal data, as well as a clear overview of your educational and professional history to date.
You can apply for admission before receiving the results of your English language test. However, a sufficient result will then be a condition of your eventual admission. Of course, if you already have your English language test results, you can upload them directly.
- Digital copies of diplomas and transcripts are initially required. Once you have been admitted, we will inform you how to submit certified copies.
- The documents must be in the original language. If they are not in English, Dutch, German or French, they must be accompanied by official translations into one of these languages.
- If you have not yet completed your current programme, state your expected graduation date and submit copies of all transcripts obtained to date plus a list of subjects still to be completed.
Additional requirements specific to Crisis and Security Management
It is not mandatory, but please include a placement letter in English, in which you explain how you meet the admission requirements. This serves to help the Board of Admissions gain further insight in your experiences (work and/or education) that might contribute to establish admissibility to the programme. Make sure to use this template.
You can download the template, fill it in, and add it to your application. List relevant academic courses or other relevant academic experiences (such as internships, summer courses, thesis or extra-curricular research), including if applicable the amount of ECTS or credits assigned to them.
For everything you list, it is recommended you hand in supporting documents, such as course descriptions, syllabi or writing samples. You can upload supporting documents via the application portal in uSis (ideally, integrate the supporting documents into one pdf).
