The courses are grouped into a basic and an advanced programme. When selecting the standard programme (basic or advanced), we guarantee that no courses will overlap in your schedule. When choosing courses from both the basic and advanced programmes, you must ensure that you have the required prior knowledge. Please note that you are responsible for selecting courses that match your level. No intake interview is required if you apply for the standard programme (basic or advanced). The Cultural & Socio-economic Introduction to Belgium course is mandatory.

In our experience, the advanced courses can be quite challenging for some exchange students, and we want to ensure that you have the necessary background knowledge. If you are unsure, please contact us.
