Insurance and housing

Belgium is a very safe travel destination. However, because it’s better prepared for anything, we'd like to take a look at what you need in terms of insurance. These are things you should take care of before travelling to Belgium and starting your classes here with us at VIVES. Check our page about insurance to read more about it.

When applying, check carefully with your home coordinator if you come for a semester or full academic year. This determines that you have a grant for that period or have sufficient means of subsistence. Leaving before the time agreed upon can only be accepted in exceptional cases such as illness or family reasons and has no influence on the obligation of paying the rent.

We stress that the housing contract is binding. Exams or tests at distance (for those exceptional cases) can be set up if necessary, as long as this bears the agreement of the home institution. If students decide to leave us without an official notification and justification by their home international coordinator, we decline all responsibility and will not issue a Transcript of Records.
