The Belgian Government has decided that Ukrainian nationals seeking refuge in Belgium will receive temporary protection with immediate effect. Many Ukrainian students are looking at opportunities to start or continue their university studies elsewhere, including at the University of Antwerp. Most of our Bachelor programmes are taught in Dutch, except the Bachelor in Social-Economic Sciences. The Dutch-taught programmes can be followed after a one-year intensive Dutch language course. Master programmes are offered in Dutch and English. The next intake for all programmes is in September 2025.
The admission requirements for these programmes remain unchanged, however the application deadlines have been adjusted to reflect the current situation.
Ukrainian nationals
The application deadline for EEA students applies to all Ukrainian candidates as well. If you have temporary protection status in Belgium at the time of enrollment, then the tuition fees payable will be equivalent to those for EEA nationals.
Application to the University of Antwerp is through the online application tool Mobility Online and is free of charge. Applications open on 4 November 2024 and close at the end of May 2025.
