Urgent:Which University is better?

These are not universities but Hoge School, you can compare it with college or academy.
About the Inholland there was a lot to do about it.
The media broadcasted all the time about it and their image have been damaged. Things about corruption, certificates were not valid etc etc. You can goolge for it to see by yourself.
The update info I don't have it for you but to be sure I' ll suggest to go to the Hogeschool Amsterdam

Hi
Thanks for the advice. To tell you the truth I never knew about Inholland's history. I'm quite shocked.
When you say as a college or academy, do you mean that it is good too?I have applied very late for personal reasons to universities and so I went with Hogeschools. I applied for one university but they required more documents and tests that i have not taken because I studied in Saudi Arabia.
I think I'll go with Hogeschool van Amsterdam for the IBMS course, but if you have any idea about it or did some further research , please let me know. But I hope it's good, because on one list it was the 11th in the Netherlands wich is quite good for a Hogeschool.
Thank you so much
Best Wishes

You can see it as one level below the univeristy, so that is very good too, at least in my opinion.
You said that you go to the IBMS course, what does that mean?

I think you're right about the Hogeschools. You are actually making me feel much better. The IBMS course is actually short for International Business Management Studies.Sorry for giving you the short form. I should have explained in the first place.Just Wish me good luck with my studies and the huge adventure I'll go through away from my family.
Best Wishes

You don't have to worry about that!
Ofcourse you will miss your family but nowdays it is easier to stay in touch with all the hightech media technique: email, chat and skype. Maybe in the beginning is difficult but after a while you get so busy that you don't think the whole time at them.

I was 18 years old when I lived by my self and  19 when I decide to study at the Hogeschool in Arnhem: social work/welfare.In the beginning I missed my mother very deeply.
The only thing how to stay in touch was a telephone.
Everyday I called her and ask her about how to cook this, how the clean that. I know how to do it but I want just to hear her voice....

As a longtime "dutch" resident and even went to university in Amsterdam I can tell you this: both schools you mentioned had/have their own bad history.

If you gonna attend a more "fancy" study with a "fancy" theme; you might end up with a diploma which is BELOW the usual standard.

You could find some troubles to find a decent employer afterwards. So my advice to you would be to examine very closely WHAT type of courses they do offer you and WHICH type of material/books they would use in your educational program. Also I would recommend you to do only 1 or 2 years at Hogeschool(HBO) and then to apply through Colloquium Doctum for a position at a regular university and to continue studying over there.

Hogeschool van Amsterdam!
