Radboud University: OMPT requirements by programme

Radboud keeps one number, 55%, across the board and varies the variant per programme instead. Several programmes accept two variants, which gives you a real choice of syllabus.

Radboud University in Nijmegen inverts the usual pattern: instead of one variant at many different scores, it keeps one score — 55% — and varies the variant per programme. Mathematics, Computing Science and Molecular Life Sciences sit OMPT-D; Psychology takes E or C; Artificial Intelligence takes E or D; Economics and Business Economics takes A or F. Biology is the one exception to the flat bar, wanting 60 to 65% on OMPT-A or 55% on OMPT-D depending on where your diploma comes from.

The choice rows are worth thinking about. Several Radboud programmes accept two variants, which gives you a real decision about which syllabus to prepare. For Psychology I would sit the E over the C — the E's statistics chapters are directly useful in the degree itself. For AI, the E is the lighter lift than the D by a wide margin.

Radboud is also relatively generous with alternatives: Boswell-Beta and CCVX count across the science programmes, and Psychology and Economics even accept an SAT maths score of 600+, which most Dutch universities refuse. At a 55% bar with those options, this is one of the most accessible OMPT policies in the Netherlands.
