A successful and sunny Bachelor’s Open Day

Last Saturday, 13 October, we welcomed almost 3100 prospective students and their parents or guardians who wanted to find out more about Maastricht University. While mostly Dutch, our visitors had more than 56 different nationalities.

Visitors got information about our bachelor’s programmes, admissions and Problem-Based Learning and were introduced to student life in Maastricht. Hermien Miltenburg joined us again to advise parents on how to best support their children in choosing a study programme.

95% of the visitors made use of the Maastricht University Open Day app (rated 9.6 out of 10) to check in at registered sessions. In the app, visitors could also find links to our social media channels, where #UMBOD18 was used to report on the Open Day.
