I am really enjoying studying at the VUB!
It is a very open-minded and international university where everyone can truly be themselves. The professors are approachable, and the assistants are even more: we can often even call them by their first name! I like the freedom you get to choose your own courses according to your interests, especially in Biology, where you can design your master’s programme almost entirely based on courses you really love. The campus also really feels like a real campus which I love. What I liked a bit less is the administration at the VUB, which can sometimes be confusing or difficult to understand. But I’ve also heard the same from friends at other universities, so I think that’s quite common everywhere. Overall, I would really recommend the VUB.
