End of study checklist

Make sure you don’t forget these practical matters!

1. Deregister from Zuyd Do this as soon as possible after being awarded your diploma. Go to www.studielink.nl and then to Opleidingen (Programmes) > Details > Uitschrijfverzoek (Request deregistration). If you don’t, Zuyd will automatically deregister you by 31 August. Please note that this only applies to your enrolment at Zuyd. You still have to arrange other matters such as stopping your study finance – see reminders below.

2. Stop your study finance Log in to www.duo.nl to stop your study finance. Go to the Mijn producten (My products) and choose Studiefinanciering stopzetten (Stop study finance).

3. Cancel your student public travel pass When your study finance ends, make sure you also deactivate your student travel pass at a loading/collection machine. Do this by the tenth day of the first month in which you are no longer entitled to study finance. Please note that you may no longer use your student travel pass as of the first day of that month. Further information can be found on www.studentenreisproduct.nl/stopzetten (in Dutch only).

4. Insurance policies You may have taken out insurance at a reduced rate (a special student rate). You may even be insured free on your parents’ policy by virtue of being a student. If so, you are obliged to inform the insurance company of the fact that you are no longer a student.

Did you know… That DUO has an online diploma register where students can download a digital extract of their diploma? Please visit: www.duo.nl/diplomaregister Financial compensation for coronavirus The government has taken various measures to support students financially during the coronavirus pandemic. The provisions are mainly to compensate for any study delay. You don’t need to submit an application for this yourself. If you’re eligible, you’ll receive this automatically. See www.duo.nl for the current status.
