Windesheim University of Applied Sciences is renowned for its personalized approach, with classes typically consisting of only 15 to 20 students, ranking among the top 3 applied Sciences Universities in the Netherlands.
The university warmly welcomed students from HSU. Throughout their participation in the SEP, HSU students not only engaged in academic studies but also immersed themselves in the various culture and student life in the Netherlands.
The dedicated lecturers at Windesheim University of Applied Sciences have exhibited remarkable enthusiasm and dedication in guiding the students from HSU throughout their academic journey, consistently providing them with valuable knowledge, insights, and support.
Ms. Truong Mai Han, an English Language Studies student of 20th at HSU, emphasized that “The program not only provides me with opportunities to delve into practical knowledge within my field of study but also serves as a platform for me to push beyond my limits and discover my potential within an international learning environment”.
Outside of class hours, students from HSU also actively participated in activities organized by the student club. This was a space where they had incredibly enjoyable and engaging experiences.
Mr. Pham Gia Bao, a student of 20th majoring in English Language Studies at HSU, commented that “The openness and enthusiastic support from the students at Windesheim University of Applied Sciences not only helped me easily integrate into a new life but also served as a crucial source of motivation, aiding me in overcoming the initial challenges of arriving in a foreign country”.
The Student Exchange program is one of the privileges that HSU students possess while studying at Hoa Sen University.

With classes only two days a week, HSU students seize the chance to delve into the customs, cultures, and lifestyles of the locals. Moreover, they engage in cultural activities and travel within the Netherlands and neighboring countries. This not only expands their cultural knowledge but also creates memorable experiences in their learning journey in new territories.
Mr. Pham Gia Bao also noted that “I managed to allocate some wonderful time to visit Germany, Switzerland, France, and many other countries on days when I didn’t have to attend classes. I had incredibly interesting experiences exploring and immersing myself in the cultures of these countries”.
The SEP in the Netherlands is an incredibly interesting opportunity. Students not only engage in academic learning and experiential activities but also immerse themselves in the culture and connect with many international friends.
