Since 2016, the University of Liège has introduced a number of measures aimed at integrating refugee students into higher education: free French language courses, free tuition, registration for the university entrance exam, etc

From the start of the 2024-2025 academic year, a pilot program for successful integration will be launched for refugee students already in Belgium. The program includesone-year support foruniversity studies, with a view to enrolling for a bachelor's degree the following year. The student will be supervised by an individual guidance counselor, and will be able to take intensive French courses and individual courses in the faculty. The student may also be accompanied by one or more faculty buddies (a student or group of students from the faculty) for courses and cultural and/or sporting activities.
