Financial Aid for Students from Outside the European Union

Certain international students who are nationals of a country outside the European Union (or treated as such) and who have been enrolled at UNamur for more than one year must pay tuition fees of either €5,369 or €3,582.

The International Student Commission may grant, based on criteria it has established, full or partial financial assistance—either direct or conditional—toward the payment of tuition (a deduction of €1,194 from the base tuition fee) for students affected by these provisions.

Application forms may be picked up at the Social Services Office during office hours from September 29 at the earliest through October 21 at the latest.

For eligible students, this program covers a portion of the costs associated with purchasing a computer (new or refurbished). The application form for this financial assistance will be available for download or can be picked up at the Social Services Office starting September 15, 2026.

To obtain a residence permit to study in Belgium, all international students must provide proof of financial independence (for example, financial support from a guarantor or a blocked bank deposit).

However, if financial difficulties arise during their studies, students can contact the Student Social Services Office:

• either by email: sse@unamur.be
• either by phone at 081/72 50 85
• or during office hours or by appointment

to explain their situation and, if they meet the eligibility requirements, obtain the financial aid application form.

The Social Services Office may grant a student who works regularly to cover some or all of their educational expenses a special “exam” allowance to enable them to devote more time to their exam period. The application form will be available at the Social Services Office starting November 2 at the earliest.

The Solidarithèque is a community grocery store whose goal is to support college students facing financial difficulties. It was created and is managed by the social services departments of UNamur, HEAJ, HEPN, HENALLUX, and IMEP in partnership with the Association for Student Solidarity in Belgium (ASEB).
