Every year the General Student Council organizes a weekend. During this weekend, student representatives from all campuses come together. We reflect on our operation, take time for some meetings, but most of all go on weekend to have a lot of fun.

This academic year we went on weekend from March 8 to 10, 2024. This took place in Hoeve Oswald, region of Sint-Niklaas.

As an international student studying abroad finding student accommodation is considered as one of the most important aspects of your student life. It is important that you feel comfortable in your new accommodation, because this will be your new 'home' for some time after all.

A golden tip for your search: start your search for accommodation in time, make time to look for a room, go and see different rooms and compare them. If you are not able to come to your new student city before the start of the academic year to look for student accommodation and you want to rent a room from abroad, watch out for fraud and never transfer money before having a copy of the signed rental contract.

Our housing service will gladly assist you with information and advice for your search. They can answer your questions about how much it can cost, where to look and they have some useful tips for your search.

As a student representative, you are entitled to be absent from the teaching activity or from an exam if, in that capacity, you are expected to attend the meeting of a participation body.

Meanwhile, the buddy operation "Odibuddy" is already running at full speed. For the second year in a row, we notice how important students, and especially first-year students, find it to be well and easily supported (at the start of their college career)! This was revealed by a survey of students and Odibuddy's.

Striking this year: 17% of the current buddies were themselves supported by an Odibuddy last year!

In this post, we take you through some of the highlights of the project.
