Open Evenings
We host regular open events for prospective students, giving you the chance to meet with admissions staff, the faculty and current students in a relaxed and informal environment. Find out about our programmes, job and internship opportunities, Brussels life and our entry requirements/admissions procedures.
May Open Evening
Our next open evening will be on 3 May. Let us know you're interested in meeting us here, and we'll be in touch with details.
If you would like to visit the School before that, please contact us to arrange a visit or you can look at our News and Events page for updates on upcoming events.
Booking usually opens four weeks before each event.
If you can't attend the open evenings on these dates, don't worry as we are happy to meet prospective students during office hours (Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm).
If you are based in the UK, we also attend open events at the Canterbury campus so you can find us there. We recommend emailing the Admissions Officer to arrange an appointment. During term time it may also be possible to sit in on a lecture to give you a taste of studying here.
