No activity is mandatory, you decide for yourself and in consultation with your UITgroup which activity you attend!
However, we do encourage you to come to the opening show and mentor registration on the Monday. This allows you to start at the same time as your group and start the UIT together.
Through the mail you will be sent your group number, this is important and remember it well. If necessary, write it down in your notes.
If you are drawn, you must email deelnemers@utrechtseintroductietijd.nl to undo your registration.
The goal is to assign each participant to an appropriate group. This way you can get to know fellow students. Each group will be supervised by mentors. These are senior students. You will be randomly assigned with other participants from different courses.
Types of groups:
– Standard: This is the most frequently selected option. This option is for prospective first-year students in Utrecht.
– Master: As a beginning master’s student in Utrecht, you will be assigned with other master’s students.
– International: You will join a group with other new international students. The working language here is English!
In addition, we ask about your interests, through this we try to make groups that hopefully like the same activities.
The UIT is for everyone who comes to study in Utrecht, including minors.

It is only possible to participate in the UIT if you will be studying at one of the participating Utrecht educational institutions. Utrecht University and Utrecht University of Applied Sciences are the principals for the UIT and, in addition, the HKU, University for Humanistics, Nimeto, ROC Midden Nederland, MBO Utrecht and Grafisch Lyceum Utrecht also participate. They fund part of the UIT, therefore it is only open to their own students. Therefore, if your institution is not among those listed above, unfortunately you cannot participate in the UIT.
It is definitely recommended to have a bicycle during the UIT so that you do not have to depend on Public Transportation or other participants. Several locations in Utrecht offer bicycles for sale or OV bikes for rent.
