Proficiency in the language of instruction is a condition for enrolling in the Bachelor's or Master's programme in Beeldende Kunsten or Visual Arts. To facilitate communication and good study results, language level B2 (Common European Framework of Reference) is required for Dutch in the Dutch-language programme and for English in the English-language programme.
You meet language level B2 for Dutch if you have successfully completed at least one year of study in Dutch-language secondary education, or you have passed at least 60 credits in Dutch-language higher education, or you can provide proof that you have passed the Interuniversity Language Test Dutch for Speakers of Other Languages (ITNA) or a B2 test of an adult education centre or licensed language centre.
