Students are required to have an insurance policy to cover illness, hospitalization and repatriation expenses for the duration of the semester in Leiden. Financial aid is available to cover these expenses on the same basis as if the student is enrolled at the home school. Housing Like most Dutch universities, Leiden does not have a campus. The majority of the university buildings are in or near the Center of town. The Office for Postgraduate Studies will, upon admission into the program, assist students in finding suitable accommodations, as it manages a variety of buildings in town.
Students generally have their own rooms, but share sanitary and kitchen facilities with others.
The office has a number of rooms reserved especially for exchange students, and furnished rooms are also available. Professor Kees van Raad of the University of Leiden will serve as the on-site program director. Professor van Raad received his legal training at the law school of the University of Leiden. He has spent substantial time in various U.S. law schools. He obtained a M.C.L. degree in tax law from Georgetown University in 1970.
