During this time students will meet with the resident director to register for the rest of the term. Once the Intensive Dutch course is complete, students will then take a full load of course work. Students are required to take The Netherlands and its European Context. The remainder of the schedule can be filled from Central College courses, a Webster University or Leiden University course, an independent study, or an internship. Course load Students are enrolled in 12-17 semester hours.
Most courses are three to four semester hours.
Students wishing to take more than 17 semester hours per semester may do so only with prior approval from the academic dean at Central College. Full-time student status is maintained by a minimum enrollment of 12 semester hours. Course List Internships Having work experience that is relevant to your career interests and academic preparation is a must. However, having an internship while in the Netherlands also provides you with yet another opportunity to integrate into Dutch society. Our internships are designed for mature students who are relatively certain of their professional plans, can work independently and take on major responsibilities.
