What about the business schools in Netherlands? Do you know about Duisenberg school of finance?

I was admitted into Finance & Law in Duisenberg school of finance(DSF) in Netherlands and was awarded 50% scholarship(13000 euros) recently. However, since this is a brand new school and its reputation is still limitted, I'm not sure whether I should attend it. DSF declares that OVER 90% of its students will find full-time jobs within 3 months after graduation. It seems wonderful, if we take into account the serious Euro debt crisis and terrible economic circumstances across Europe. Does anyone know about this school? Plz help me make a judgement, or elaborate the pros and cons of studying in Netherlands. Many thanks!

BTW, Duisenberg school of finance is named after the founder of Euros---Willem Frederik Duisenberg.

24837Never heard of it, and I know a thing or two about Euro schools.

Finding employment for a Dutch graduate is no problem - literally all of them speak German...

Well, actually most Dutch people speak English~Their average TOEFL score is 104, the highest one in the European continent and the world at large, far surpasses that of British people, which is 95. What a sarcasm! Recently I am self studying the Dutch language, it seems that I have to start from scratch, sigh…
fighting!

Ummm... what are you talking about? Obviously they speak English. But that doesn't give you access to the roaring German job market.

I was referring to your comment:

Most Dutch graduates speak German. German youth unemployment is the LOWEST it's been in DECADES. Hence, for any Dutch from a halfway decent school it should be no problem finding a job in the neighbor country right now.
