Advice on residency permit when partner has residency permit through University

3 years ago
Hi everyone, my family and i [my partner (22) and daughter (2)] are attempting to move to the Netherlands in July of 2022. My wife has a residency permit from her University for her Masters program. I am completing my B.S. degree just before we move, as is my wife. Will i need to establish my own permit or will the university extend the permit for all of us?

If not, will i then need to find a job in the Netherlands willing to hire me and send me over as well?

And since I'm the only one who will be creating an income for our family will all of this need to be impeccable timing?

All answers would be much appreciated!
