Abstract
An increase in international students is occurring at many of the universities in the Netherlands and the University of Groningen is one of the universities where this happens. By asking around a hundred international students about the quantity of their spending, this research has tried to identify what the significance of these spendings is. Of course, not all spendings that the international students do will remain in the city of Groningen, a lot of money flows away and will have no effect in the local economy. The results show that for some expense categories almost all of the expenses are spent in shops in Groningen. Although the shops get more international students they don’t adapt to these students particularly, because they spend their money in the same stores as Dutch students do.
