Starting as a new student at VUB?
It all kicks off with Orientation days from 15 to 22 September. 

A good start is half the battle? We wouldn’t go that far – but a strong beginning is crucial to your academic success at university. That’s why we go all out during Orientation days to get you properly started in just one or two days. 

We expect you to attend your Welcome Day(s). This is the moment to begin your studies well prepared – and you’ll reap the benefits later. 

What’s on the programme? 

Meet your programme, your campus, and your professors? Check! 
Compulsory assessments to gauge your starting competences? Absolutely! 
Fun activities to make new friends? Of course! 

In short: essential information and insights you’ll only receive during Orientation days. 

Find more details about: 

  • the standard programme for all new students 

  • the specific programme for working students 

  • the additional programme for international students
