Share your opinion in the National Student Survey
The 2026 National Student Survey results are in!
Nearly three-quarters of students in higher professional education and university education are satisfied with their degree programme. This is shown by the results of the 2026 National Student Survey (NSE), completed by more than 248,000 students. Student satisfaction therefore remains high. At the same time, almost one-third of students report experiencing excessive study pressure.

What is the NSE?
The National Student Survey (Nationale Studenten Enquête®) is a large-scale, nationwide satisfaction survey in which students can share their opinions on their course programmes and universities or universities of applied sciences. The NSE results are used for course selection information, on the Studiekeuze123.nl website, and for other purposes. In addition, universities and universities of applied sciences can use the results to improve the quality of education.
“When a prospective student chooses a course programme, they consider more than just the curriculum and the job opportunities. Being able to compare the general atmosphere, the academic counselling and the facilities offered is important, too.”
Jeroen Kleingeld,
Productmanager Nationale Studenten Enquête
