Deze informatie is van toepassing op studenten die zich op basis van een diploma van een niet-Nederlandse onderwijsinstelling voor een bacheloropleiding van de Radboud Universiteit willen aanmelden. Met deze lijst kun je controleren of je met jouw diploma, of het diploma dat je zult behalen, in aanmerking komt voor toelating tot een bacheloropleiding aan de Radboud Universiteit.
Wij accepteren middelbareschooldiploma’s die gelijkwaardig zijn aan het Nederlandse vwo-diploma (voorbereidend wetenschappelijk onderwijs). Staat jouw diploma niet in deze lijst? Dan kan het toch gelijkwaardig zijn aan een Nederlands vwo-diploma, maar er kunnen extra eisen gelden met betrekking tot gevolgde vakken en behaalde cijfers. De toelatingscommissie beoordeelt elke aanvraag afzonderlijk en informeert je over het toelatingsbesluit. De beste manier om te bepalen of je in aanmerking komt voor de bacheloropleiding van jouw keuze is door een verzoek tot inschrijving in te dienen. Hoe eerder je dit doet (aanmeldingen openen al in oktober), hoe beter; zo weet je tijdig of je toelaatbaar bent en kun je vooruit plannen.
Let op:
Deze lijst geeft geen garantie op toelating, en er kunnen geen rechten aan worden ontleend. Ook cijfers, gevolgde vakken en het niveau daarvan worden meegenomen in de beoordeling.
Afhankelijk van de bacheloropleiding van jouw keuze kunnen er vakspecifieke en/of taaleisen gelden. Op de webpagina van de bacheloropleiding van je keuze vind je meer informatie.
Veel bacheloropleidingen vereisen een bepaald niveau van wiskunde in je diploma, of een aanvullende wiskundetoets met een voldoende resultaat. Op de webpagina van de bacheloropleiding van je keuze vind je meer informatie.
De informatie in deze lijst is alleen van toepassing op aanmeldingen voor het academisch jaar 2026–2027. De Radboud Universiteit aanvaardt geen aansprakelijkheid voor fouten, weglatingen of misinterpretaties die voortvloeien uit de inhoud van deze informatie.

Niet direct toelaatbaar?
De beste manier om te bepalen of je in aanmerking komt voor de bacheloropleiding van jouw keuze is door een verzoek tot inschrijving in te dienen. Ook kun je, met een extra jaar hoger onderwijs, mogelijk het verschil overbruggen:
Voltooi één jaar in een academische opleiding aan een erkende instelling voor hoger onderwijs, bijvoorbeeld in je eigen land, die nauw verwant is aan de door bachelor van jouw keuze aan de Radboud Universiteit. Het volledige eerste jaar moet met voldoende resultaten worden afgerond. Het exacte niveau en de waarde hangen af van factoren zoals de instelling waar het is behaald, de inhoud van het studieprogramma, de nominale studieduur en het GPA. Dit extra jaar kan het verschil maken in de toelatingsbeoordeling.
Voltooi één jaar aan een Nederlandse hogeschool in een opleiding die nauw verwant is aan de bachelor van jouw keuze aan de Radboud Universiteit, en behaal alle vakken. Je ontvangt dan een hbo-propedeuse. Met deze hbo-propedeuse kun je toelating aanvragen voor onze bacheloropleidingen. Deze optie geldt voor alle bacheloropleidingen, maar er kunnen aanvullende eisen gelden, zoals een wiskundetoets of een minimaal GPA.
