Students' exchanges outside Europe

In order to establish its international reputation, Saint Louis concluded several bilateral agreements with universities located in Asia, North America and Latin America, providing students with the opportunity to study during a semester outside the European Union.

Those exchanges outside Europe are partially financed by the « Fonds d’Aide à la Mobilité Etudiante (FAME) », granted by the Wallonia-Brussels Federation and, to a certain extent, by the university own funds.

They took part to these exchanges…

« My name is Georgia Johnston from Taiwan. I am a diplomacy student from Tamkang University. I spent some time in Belgium in 2018 for an internship, and liked it so much I decided to put Brussels as my first choice when applying for exchange. I am lucky to be able to spend my exchange year at Saint Louis.

Before arriving I was extremely worried about whether I could fit in and make

friends, but the students here have been nothing but helpful. I’ve made friends with local students in class and during ESN events, I was introduced to some of the best restaurants in town, and my Belgian buddy even picked me up from the airport with her car! Learning experience wise, the professors here speak good English thus they are able to go deep into the explanation of the content they teach. Back home we use a forum to communicate with the professors and organize our schedule, and I was happy to find Saint-Louis with similar technique...link to the whole testimonial (academic year 2019-2020)
