Is It Required To Be a First-Year Student To Rent A "Welcome To NL"-Offer?

No, it is not required to be a first-year student to rent a "Welcome To NL"-offer.

While this offer is specifically designed in collaboration with Student Housing Hunter to support (first-year) students who often need extra assistance with securing housing and setting up essential services like insurance, bank accounts, and mobile phone subscriptions, it is still available to students who may need additional guidance, regardless of their year of study. If you are already in the Netherlands or not a first-year student but find yourself needing extra support, you can still take advantage of the "Welcome To NL"-offer.
