KU Leuven

KU Leuven

Belgium is, of course, the home of the EU, located in Brussels. Therefore, as a prospective undergraduate degree applicant Belgium presents itself as a truly compelling place to position oneself. An acknowledged hub for international politics, Belgium’s capital Brussels has even more ambassadors and journalists than Washington DC, and is the headquarters of many international businesses and organizations. Belgium’s resident population is also highly international, with around a quarter of the population of 11 million known as ‘new Belgians’ – those from other countries, and their descendants, who have become permanent citizens.

Consequently, there are many cogent reasons to study in Belgium: world-renowned universities, excellent opportunities for international networking, famously multicultural and multilingual cities, a host of regional cuisines and specialties, beautiful countryside, overall high quality of life, and, of course, those fantastic Belgian chocolates.

There are some excellent undergraduate degrees available at very highly ranked universities, such as KU Leuven and Ghent.
