In their own words
Bachelorsportal
Bachelorsportal is a free web service for finding and comparing English-taught bachelor’s programmes at universities worldwide. Students can filter searches by subject, country, tuition fees, duration, study format, language requirements, and university rankings. They can evaluate tuition, rankings, location, and format, then save and compare programmes. The site also provides university rankings, reviews, student life information, admission requirements, and tuition fees. Its listings include more than 5,500 bachelor’s scholarships; an account can display scholarships available for a student’s nationality. Programme details come from official university websites or are curated and verified by Bachelorsportal’s data team. Most programme pages are checked at least once per year, while broken links are monitored continuously and fees, deadlines, and study dates are checked for unusual changes. Students can connect directly with universities to apply, but should verify final programme details with the university. Bachelorsportal is part of Studyportals, headquartered in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Studyportals says its processing complies with the GDPR, the Dutch GDPR Execution Act, and the Dutch Telecommunications Act.
