Deciding where to take the next step in your education can be tough. There are many factors to consider, such as specialization, cost, career opportunities, and campus culture. Sometimes, the best choice is simpler than you think. Why not continue your journey at the same university where you started? Here are three reasons why staying at Nyenrode could be a great option:

1. Smooth Transition to Your Master’s

Once you've completed your bachelor’s at Nyenrode, you won’t need to worry about a pre-master phase. With your BScBA degree, you can move directly into the Full-time Master of Science in Management program without any hassle. You’ll have six months before the program starts in January to either gain work experience through a job or traineeship, or focus on personal development. This is a great opportunity to explore your interests and get ready for the next chapter in your studies.

2. Expand Your Network Beyond Business

During your bachelor’s, you’ll build valuable connections with fellow students, professors, and alumni. As you move into the master’s program, your network will grow even more. You’ll meet people from a variety of fields, such as healthcare, hospitality, engineering, and more. These new connections can help you expand your horizons, explore new industries, and potentially discover new career interests.

3. Familiarity with the Environment and People

Staying at Nyenrode for your master’s means you’ll already be familiar with the campus, the teaching style, and the academic culture. This familiarity can make your transition into the master’s program much smoother. You can continue to engage with student associations like NCV or JCV, try out new committees, or even take on a leadership role. With a solid foundation already in place, you’ll feel more confident and ready to take on new challenges.

Tip! If you decide to continue your studies at Nyenrode, consider switching locations. Each campus has its own unique atmosphere, and experiencing a different location can give you a broader perspective on the Nyenrode experience.
