Information session on student loans at DUO
Do you have student loans at DUO? Are you wondering about the rising interest rate on these loans or exact repayment rules? Or are you not yet aware that students who graduate next year can possibly save hundreds of euros on interest in the next 5 years?
Come to the information session and Q&A in Waaier 1 on November 29th starting at 12:45! During this session DUO’s rules for student loans will be summarized, and a strategy will be shared how you as a student can protect yourself from rising interest rates. After the break, questions you might have about your personal situation will be answered by a spokesperson from DUO in the Foyer of the waaier.
This session will be livestreamed and recorded, both can be accessed using https://tinyurl.com/ut-duo or (with the QR code on the posters around the campus).
For international students the recording will be subtitled in English, and they are of course free to ask any questions in English in the Foyer from 13:45 to 15:30.
NOS has written an article about a 'trick' which can be used where you may have the possibility to fix a part of your student loan against a low interest. DUO has confirmed that this 'trick' works. They only emphasize that this 'trick' can have risks for the continuation of your student loan. Here is a link to the article on the NOS. Unfortunately this article is in Dutch.
