“3 essential tips for Romanian students going to the Netherlands”

Intro text (for YouTube / TikTok / Instagram post):
Are you going to study in the Netherlands? Here are 3 simple things that can save you time, stress, and even money. We speak from experience – watch the video and save it for later!
#studentinNetherlands #RomaniansInNetherlands #StudentGuide #ErasmusLife

Partial transcript (voice-over + on-screen text):
“First tip: Get your BSN as soon as possible! Without it, you can’t open a bank account, you can’t work legally, and you won’t receive funding from DUO.
Second: Find stable accommodation, even if it’s temporary. Romanian students often end up moving 3–4 times in one year.
Third: Inform yourself about DUO and your rights. Many give up on funding because they don’t know they can get it even as a freelancer.”
