Procedure for paying the additional fee (excluding tuition of €1,194)
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, partial financial assistance—either direct or conditional—to cover the additional fee (excluding the base tuition fee of €1,194) for students affected by these provisions.
Application forms can be picked up at the Social Services Office during office hours from September 29 through October 21 at the latest.
Financial Assistance for the Purchase of a Computer
For eligible students, this program covers a portion of the costs associated with purchasing a computer (new or refurbished).
Financial Assistance for Tuition and Living Expenses (excluding the additional contribution)
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 deposit in a bank guarantee).
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 Special “Exams” Allowance
The Social Services Office may grant a student who regularly works part-time 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 can be picked up at the Social Services Office’s office hours starting no earlier than November 2 and no later than December 4, 2026.
