The Netherlands has Europe’s tightest student-housing market. Apply through your university’s housing partner (DUWO, SSH, Vestide, or similar) the moment you receive admission — slots run out months in advance. Expect rents of €450–€800 per room in mid-sized cities, and €700–€1,200 in Amsterdam or Utrecht. Private kamerverhuur sites and student Facebook groups fill the gaps but require care.
