In the Netherlands this is not a common thing nor does it say anything about your chances to get accepted or the quality of education. You just have to meet the requirements to get accepted. How does this work?<\/p>\n<h2>What is an acceptance rate?<\/h2>\n<p>The acceptance rate of a university is the percentage of students that gets admitted to a programme based on the total number of students that applied. Especially in the United States universities with a low acceptance rate are generally viewed as desirable. This is why they often would like to get as many applicants as possible to get a low acceptance rate and look more prestigious. Since the Netherlands doesn\u2019t have such kind of a system it is hard to compare. This means there is also no acceptance rate at Wageningen University.<\/p>\n<h2>How is the acceptance rate arranged at Wageningen University?<\/h2>\n<p>Some universities in the Netherlands have \u2018numerus fixus\u2019 programmes (where only a certain amount of students get accepted), Wageningen University accepts every student. This means you will get accepted to any bachelor\u2019s or master\u2019s programme if you meet the requirements.<br \/>\nThere are some general requirements to be able to study at Wageningen University.
