Exchange students
Some students from abroad are granted the status of “exchange student”. Most of them take part in one of the European Commission’s educational programmes, such as Lifelong Learning Programme/ Erasmus . Others are visiting Leuven in the framework of an exchange agreement at faculty level between their home university and K.U.Leuven. Exchange students remain enrolled at their home university while spending a few months to a full academic year at K.U.Leuven, free of charge.
