Facilities
The MultiMedia Studiecentrum (MMS)
The MultiMedia Studiecentrum is well-equipped with multimedia computers that you can use. In this room there are also printers, scanners, CD and DVD players and recording equipment. Users of this centre should have a student ID. With your student card you can get a personal account and access to internet. In the beginning of your stay, you will receive a letter of the International Relations office with a green stamp on it. This is a provisional student ID card, which will be accepted by the MMS for the time that you have no real student ID yet. Until you do, you can get a day card each time you want to use the computer.

Academic Writing Centre/ Het Academisch Schrijfcentrum Nijmegen (ASN)
It is not easy to write a proper academic text. If you have a writing assignment such as an essay, a thesis, report or another written document you can get help at the writing centre. They do not write or think up the text for you, but they give feedback on any question you have during the process of working on the assignment. By doing so they can help you to improve your thinking and writing process, which in effect will help you to write a better text.
