Vitality and Ageing (MSc)
Application deadlines
The Master’s Vitality & Ageing stimulates interdisciplinary thought. Meaning that motivated students with a broad scale of Bachelor backgrounds will potentially be admitted to the programme.
Starting in September 2023
The application deadlines for starting in September 2023 are:
- If you do not need a visa or residence permit, you must apply for admission before 15 May 2023.
- If you need a visa or residence permit, you must apply for admission before 1 April 2023.
Starting in February 2024
The application deadlines for starting in February 2024 are:

- If you need a visa or residence permit, you must apply for admission before 15 October 2023.
Apply early!
If you don’t have a Dutch diploma that grants direct admission, you’ll have to complete a two-part application procedure:
- First register your application(s) in the national system Studielink.
- Within two days you will receive log-in details for Leiden University’s application system (uSis), where you can complete your application. All the required documents must be submitted within 7 days after the admission deadline.
You must submit your application via Leiden University’s application system (uSis), before the deadlines mentioned above. So don’t delay; if you haven’t registered in Studielink and activated your uSis account in time to apply by the deadline, you’ll miss out!
Other deadlines
Leiden University reserves a limited number of rooms each year for international students. However, as the number of housing requests always greatly exceeds the number of rooms available, we strongly recommend that you also look into other housing options at the same time. Read more about how and when to arrange housing. If you want to request accommodation via Leiden University, submit both your application for admission and your housing request well before the deadlines! Accommodation is offered on a first-come first-served basis and is not guaranteed. You don’t have to await admission before requesting housing.
If you want to apply for a scholarship, grant or loan, please bear in mind that different deadlines apply, and these deadlines can often be earlier. Deadlines vary per scholarship. Visit the scholarship website for more details.
