Student Welcome
On 24 September, the city of Hasselt officially welcomes all international students in Hasselt and Diepenbeek to the Hasselt town hall, called 't Scheep. The mayor or alderman will be present to raise a toast, and all students will have the opportunity to meet each other.
Following this official welcome, students can participate in guided tours in the city centre, where plenty of fun facts but also practical tips for students will be shared. The evening will end with a free karaoke night, in collaboration with the ESN student association.
Registrations will soon open.
