University entrance exam

In accordance with the decree of March 31, 2004, the University administers a series of admissions examinations that grant admission to all first-cycle programmes of study, except for those in civil engineering. This examination must test students' knowledge of the French language (written and spoken) and of mathematics. Moreover students choose which of these two subjects to be more thoroughly examined on. Then they choose four subjects from this group: history, geography, physics, chemistry, biology, and languages (Dutch, German, English or Latin). At least one of these subjects, selected by the Jury, will be tested by an oral examination.

Where and how examinations are administered :

Examinations take place on the Sart-Tilman Campus in accordance with the exact calendar given below :
