Entry requirements depending on your diploma

This list is for general guidance only and no rights can be derived from it. All applications are considered on their individual merits. If your qualification is not on this list, it does not mean you cannot be admitted. You may, however, be required to have completed at least one year of university before being eligible for admission.

The entry requirements need to be met on your final grade list, and mathematics and English (for non-native speakers) have to be included in the final examination. PPLE College does not accept a combination of different diplomas. All requirements must be met on one single diploma, if needed with the aid of a supplementary test.

When you do not meet the minimum required grades for mathematics and/or English on your final grade list, you will have to take a supplementary test to overcome these deficiencies.

If your documents are in any language other than Dutch, English, German or French, you will need to provide us with certified translations in your application.

Please note that if you apply for the September 2021 intake but you have obtained your high school diploma before the summer of 2019 the PPLE Selection Committee may ask you to take a supplementary test in English and/or mathematics to demonstrate that your English proficiency and/or math skills are still satisfactory.
