Welcome Days
Get to know your fellow students, campus and study programme before classes start. The Welcome Days are the ideal combination of relaxing activities and very useful information sessions. These information sessions are part of your programme and are therefore a must. You can find the schedule of your programme here.
PS: You can also follow your campus on Facebook! Find our event for your Welcome Days and get to know your future campus: Antwerpen, De Nayer, Geel, Lier, Mechelen, Turnhout or Vorselaar. Or get to know Stuvo via Instagram.
