Student Reviews
Representative reviews"Exceeded expectations"
I've grown so much academically and personally here. The best part: the teaching staff are genuinely world-class and accessible. If I'm honest, admin can be slow to respond, especially at start of term. On the city — housing is the one real problem: start looking months before arrival. Overall, if you're considering Pedagogical Sciences at Universiteit Leiden, I'd say go for it.
"Would do it again"
Coming here has changed how I think. The best part: the cohort are bright and motivated, which makes the learning environment great. If I'm honest, a few modules feel under-resourced compared to the flagship ones. On the city — English is universal; you don't need Dutch for the first year. Overall, if you're considering Pedagogical Sciences at Universiteit Leiden, I'd say go for it.
