Hotelschool The Hague has been successfully accredited with the distinctive feature of “small-scale and intense education by the NVAO (The Dutch-Flemish accreditation board) for its Bachelor programme. This means that HTH has been accredited by the NVAO on the following eight criteria: intended learning outcomes; relationship between the goal and the content of the programme; structure and didactic concept; intake; quality of staff; number of staff; available facilities, and level realised. This implies for example that the ratio of staff to students at HTH is higher than at most larger institutes of higher education, that the learning goals are more ambitious and that we have a sound selection procedure in place.

Based on this distinctive feature, Hotelschool The Hague is allowed to charge an additional tuition fee.

In addition to the tuition fees, there are other costs:

Skotel

The Skotel and catering practical forms an integral part of the curriculum. It is compulsory for students to stay at the Skotel (the training and study hotel) during the first year, either in Amsterdam or The Hague. The fee includes breakfast and one meal (lunch or dinner) per day on campus during 40 school weeks (excluding weekends) as well as access to the Internet for 45 weeks. After the first-year students are required to make their own accommodation arrangements.

Student expenditure for practicals

There are additional costs for uniforms and a knife set.

Study books

Books can be bought from the school’s supplier. Other lesson materials consist mainly of a course guide that contains important information for each course, such as the number of EC’s it provides, who the lecturers are, etc. Workbooks and manuals provide additional reading material to supplement the books. These course materials are available free of charge after your start on the school’s intranet: www.myhotelschool.nl.
