SEI Amsterdam wants to meet the wishes of the international student, who come to Amsterdam for masterclasses, post graduate courses, summer courses etc. and seek temporary housing. SEI Amsterdam is for the academic community. We offer a unique and distinctive concept in the Netherlands with this location.
