Intensive Dutch classes are available to visiting students at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters; credit from these classes may not transfer to W&M, but they are valuable for the cultural enrichment they provide.
The historic city of Leiden is situated in the province of South Holland in the Netherlands, which is very centrally located in Europe and provides a base from which to explore many other countries. Its population includes to a high percentage of students, and W&M students are typically housed in international student residences situated throughout thetown. The main train station is in the center of the city and offers direct access to Amsterdam, the Hague and Schiphol Airport (Amsterdam). Automotive traffic in the city is fairly light with most residents - students and non-students alike - making their way by bicycle and on foot.
Assisted enrollment requires W&M students to pay tuition to Leiden University. Out-of-state students often find assisted enrollment the best option. All W&M students will pay for housing, meals and fees on-site in Leiden.
For the Academic 13-14 year there are scholarships available for students who direct enroll at the Leiden University for the year or semester. More information can be found here: http://studyabroad.wm.edu/?go=AdelaideLeidenMcGill
The Reves Center advisor for Leiden University programs is Theresa Johansson.
