前几天收到秘书的来信,说了下这个政策,不过只适用MSC DEGREE的学生(PHD的我不知道),下面是她的信截选:
Most of you have a Residence Permit valid until September, but will graduate earlier. Because the reason of your stay in the Netherlands is "study", this means -by law- that you will have to leave the Netherlands (the Schengen countries) within about 10 days after your graduation.
There is one exception however: foreign students who received their MSc degree is offered the possibility to find a job (for which this MSc degree is required) in The Netherlands during a period of three months. Students that find a job which satisfies special demands, will receive a new residence permit. Students who have received their MSc diploma and who want to make use of this new regulation, can apply for it at the municipality in their place of residence. They need to bring a copy of their diploma.
I will inform the Immigration Service about the date of your graduation. If you are planning to stay in (one of) the Schengen countries longer than 10 days after your graduation, please inform me (also if you make use of the exception mentioned above). In case you do not inform me, you will have to leave within 10 days after your graduation!!
P.S.: in case you want to stay in the Netherlands for another reason than study, you need to apply for a new residence permit. |
