Looking for more study specific information before making your study choice? Then sign up for a Taster Day! The name says it all: with a Taster Day you can get a taste of the programme. Depending on the study programme this can take place either online or at Saxion. During the Taster Day you will follow (online) classes that will give you an impression of what it’s really like to study this programme at Saxion. You will get the opportunity to meet your (possible) future classmates and our lecturers.

Dates and registration
Want to sign up? Choose a date and (online) location of your preffered study programme. 

During the Trial Day (meeloopdag) you will join a first-year student in their day at their study programme and experience what it is like to be a Saxion student! The difference with a Taster Day is that you follow the actual classes with a current student. As a result, the classes might be a bit more difficult, but you get a feel for what a normal day at Saxion looks like, what the atmosphere is like in a class and how much homework students have to do.

Dates and registration
Are there no new Trial Days listed below or are you unable to go on the dates mentioned? After the open days, we often share new dates. So keep an eye on this page and sign up!


Please note: Trial Days are for Dutch students looking to join the English taught study programmes at Saxion. Are you an international student? Take a look at our 'Student for a day' programme specifically for international students!
