Netherlands Worldwide Students

Netherlands Worldwide Students (Dutch: Nederlandse Wereldwijde Studenten), NEWS for short, is a Dutch student organisation based in Amsterdam.

NEWS forms a worldwide network of Dutch students currently, formerly and prospectively enrolled at foreign universities or professional schools. It offers a platform for joint activities and bridges the gap to the government, private sector, academic sector and society of the Netherlands.

NEWS Clubs also form an integral part of the NEWS network, offering local activities, borrels and Dutch gezelligheid at universities outside of the Netherlands. NEWS Clubs are active at Harvard, Cornell, Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, Paris and Bruges, amongst others.

In addition, NEWS maintains an online database of Dutch students currently or formerly enrolled at foreign universities. This network provides its participants access to local contacts, knowledge and advice in any sector or country to facilitate studying abroad or returning to the Netherlands. NEWS also has its own Wiki-based site, for user-generated information on studying abroad, foreign universities, financial aid and such.

NEWS was founded in 2007 by and for students and is completely run by volunteers. It receives support from Nuffic, the IB-Group and several Dutch multinationals.
