Welcome to Limburg

Our campuses in Limburg are situated in Hasselt, Diepenbeek (only minutes from the city of Hasselt) and in Genk.

We would like to offer the best possible start for your exchange period, always securing your safety and health.

Welcome days UC Leuven

The Orientation Day is organised exlusively for UC Limburg students, so we can get to know each other in a small and cosy group. The participation in the Orientation day is free.

On Saturday September 19, you are invited to join the city trip to Brussels with Insignia and the international students at UC Leuven. 

Of course, you are also very welcome to participate in the activities we organise in UC Leuven! It is the ideal opportunity for you to discover the city of Leuven and to connect with other international UCLL students.

You can also mark Thursday October 15 in your calender. The city of Hasselt will organise a Welcome event for international students.
