It is not possible to “transfer” to Hasselt University. Applicants interested in transferring must apply as a new student via the regular application procedure.
If admitted, students have the option to request an exemption of certain courses in their study programme at Hasselt University.
Unfortunately, we offer the medicine bachelor programme in Dutch only, not in English.
In Belgium, there is a national entrance examination for medicine and dentistry studies, which is organized by the regional government. Since our university is located in Flanders, the Dutch speaking part of the country, this examination can only be taken in Dutch.
To get admission for the medicine programme, you need to pass the national entrance examination and be ranked positively. You also need to apply via the regular application procedure.
