University of Curaçao

We’re excited that you are considering studying, researching or collaborating with us.

Located in the Caribbean, between Aruba and Bonaire and just off the coast of Venezuela, Curaçao is well known for its beaches, 365 days of sun and its expansive coral reefs. As part of the Netherlands, the official language is Dutch, but the most widely spoken language is the creole language Papiamentu. However, Spanish and English are also widely spoken.

The University of Curaçao Dr. Moises da Costa Gomez (UoC) is a university positively evaluated by the NVAO, offering a wide variety of programs in five different faculties. Besides this, the UoC also offers a Pre Academic Program especially tailored for those looking for a gap year abroad.

Driven to become the knowledge center in the Caribbean, the University of Curaçao International Office helps students, faculty and staff to engage internationally. We work with universities worldwide to develop international relations, partnerships and development projects that support our international goals. We help students internationalize their academic experience through study abroad opportunities thanks to the different partnerships that we have.

On this site you will find information to help you prepare for studying as an international student at the UoC. Should you have any questions, please contact our international office who will assist you with all the information you might need. The international office will be glad to assist you with immigration, housing facilities, academic and social matters.Feel free to contact us at:
