ESN WintroDays

 Are you excited to meet internationals and exchange students from all around the world?

The Erasmus Student Network (ESN) of Rotterdam invites you to the ESN Winter Intro Days for new full-time and exchange students. Mark your calendar for January 24th and 25th, 2026! During these Winter intro days, you’ll dive into a range of unforgettable activities with your group. These days are all about making new friends and exploring the wonderful city of Rotterdam. Plus, you’ll get a warm introduction to Dutch culture…

Expect a variety of exciting activities!  This year, we’re kicking things off with  skating, city tour, parties, and Cantus – and that’s just the beginning!

These activities will help you as a new student in Rotterdam by familiarizing yourself with the university, student life, and the beautiful city of Rotterdam. Click here if you are interested in joining. 

However, if you are someone who already feels like they know the ins and outs of Rotterdam already and is ready to share their knowledge of the city and student lifestyle, click here to learn more about becoming a guide.

Every year, 5500 international students come to Rotterdam to study at Erasmus University. Despite the large number, we ensure the ESN Introduction Days maintain an intimate, family-like atmosphere. To guarantee your spot and kickstart your year in Rotterdam with a fantastic group of friends and countless memories, we recommend you register as soon as possible!

Throughout the year, ESN Rotterdam organizes over 150 events for international students. Follow us on  Instagram to stay updated on this year’s schedule!
