Activities

BIT (BIT of Introductory Time)

BIT is a period with activities in September to get to know the ins and outs of studying and student life. In groups of 6 first-years, led by 2 older students, you can visit various activities. You get to know lots of people and make new friends. Check bit.svcover.nl for info and registration.

To senior students: would you like to lead a BIT group to help first-years get to know Cover? Then sign up on bit.svcover.nl! You can sign up with someone else if you’d like to lead a group together.

The deadline is this weekend.
