I love my experience in Ku Leuven and will recommend it at 100%.

The programme is busy but very interesting. The real added value to the teaching at KU Leuven is the excellence of the professors. They are professionals who are passionate about the subjects they teach and this is reflected in the way they teach. Therefore, it is rare to find a teacher who is not captivating!
The level of the university is quite high, so you should expect to do a lot of work.
However, the university and the city of Leuven make sure that students do not forget to relax and enjoy themselves and that this is also part of a student’s university adventure.
Also, you have the chance to meet different people from so many diversified cultural backgrounds every day.

Moreover, KU Leuven is a university that is very much focused on the well-being of the student. For example, during exam periods, they organise group YOGA sessions.

Finally, what I really appreciated is that every semester they organise meetings between professionals and students in order to prepare our educational insertion.
Finally, I did not appreciate the fact that finding a student job when you don’t speak Dutch is complicated.

I am currently following a transition program in order to obtain my Master’s degree in Law. First of all, I would like to emphasize that I am very satisfied with the track counsellors at KU Leuven. They are people who are always ready to look at how your academic year is going or where there are problems. You also get an answer from them super fast. In addition, the student services department is very easy to reach and you can quickly go with your questions to the right person within the department.

As for the classes and the professors, I can’t say anything but positive. Within my direction, you have a lot of theory that you have to process, but because of the good classes, you really learn the theory by looking at examples of practice in the classes.

KU Leuven is a university where all backgrounds can study since they offer many of their courses in English. You also notice that there is a lot of presence of international students in Leuven.

As for my future prospects, I am almost certain that my law degree from KU Leuven will give me a very good basis to work as a lawyer within a company. This is because the theory but also the practice of law is very broadly covered.
