Overview

The BA in Psychology offered at Webster is designed to build a strong foundation of understanding, interpreting, analyzing and applying the study of psychology in different contexts.

In this program, students get to develop a superior and more in-depth understanding of the complexities and diversity of human behavior and behavioral patterns. Students also get to learn about theories and concepts of psychology behind most of these behavioral elements. The program uses both scientific approach and philosophical approach towards understanding psychology. Both theoretical concepts, and experimental data are taken into account during the study. Students are also encouraged to develop and apply problem-solving aptitude, and clear communication, as an aid to expand their knowledge horizons.

Visa information

Student Visas for the Netherlands
Are you from Bangladesh? You might need a student visa...

Don’t worry, everything is ok. We’re on it, and we’re doing all we can to make your search for the right international degree in the Netherlands a little easier and more enjoyable. Still, while we’re catching up, you can always beat us to it and:

• Check if you really need a student visa.
  Since you’re from Bangladesh and planning full-time academic study in the Netherlands, yes, you’ll definitely need a student visa — specifically a long-stay (MVV) visa along with a residence permit for study purposes.

• Start exploring the official Dutch authorities.
  For Bangladeshi applicants, the Embassy of the Netherlands in Dhaka and the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) handle student visas. That’s where all the latest and most reliable information lives. Bookmark it, read it, reread it.

• Check the deadlines.
  Visa processing can take several weeks — sometimes more than a month. Don’t leave it to the last minute. A small delay might mean missing the start of your semester, and that’s not the plot twist you want.

• Go on a paperwork treasure hunt.
  Passport?
  Letter of Acceptance from your Dutch university?
  Visa application form, proof of accommodation, financial evidence, health insurance, passport-sized photos, academic certificates, legalized documents, possibly a TB test after arrival… yep, the list is long. And yes, you’ll need every single piece.

• Start saving up.
  You’ll need to show that you can financially support yourself while studying in the Netherlands. That means covering tuition fees, monthly living costs, travel expenses, and visa-related charges. Every euro counts — especially if you’re planning weekend trips across Europe.

• Boost your English or Dutch skills.
  Many programs in the Netherlands are taught in English, so if you’ve taken IELTS, TOEFL, or another test, that’s great. Still, it never hurts to keep improving. And hey, picking up a bit of Dutch can make your new life even more exciting (and a lot easier at the grocery store).

All in all, getting your Dutch student visa might feel like a lot, but it’s one big step toward an even bigger adventure.

Thanks and good luck!
