Candidate-students for our professional bachelor programmes (interior design or landscape & garden architecture) that do not have the Vantage B2 language level (or equivalent) in Dutch can apply for the language preparation year.
The language preparation year can be followed in any officially recognized institute for Duch language instruction, provided the followed course can get you to the Vantage B2 level.
Prospective students who require a student visa to come to Belgium for the language preparation year, will only be able to receive the student visa when they have enrolled for a full language course at one of the University Language Centers.
Candidate students need to follow all steps of following procedure:
- Full application as required in our application procedure.
- Submission of correctly authenticated required documents
- Registration for the programme through Eventbrite and payment of the administration fee for the language preparation year.
- Registration at the University Language Center or Dutch language School.
When this procedure has been completed, a conditional acceptance letter will be issued and sent to the candidate. The Eventbrite fee is non-refundable, but will be deducted from the tuition fee at the time the candidate comes to enroll for our professional bachelor programme.
Applications will not be processed until confirmation of the Eventbrite fee payment.
KASK & Conservatorium only accepts true and authentic diploma documents to avoid document fraude. Therefore, depending on the country your diploma and transcripts were issued, you will need either a certification stamp, an apostille stamp or a legalisation stamp. Without having submitted a physical copy containing the original of this stamp, we cannot issue a formal invitation to enroll or enroll you.
To put things clear: you do not need this stamp on your documents to apply and do an interview/audition, but you will need to submit it before you enroll or wish to receive an invitation to enroll. Obtaining these authentications can take up quite a bit of time, so take care of this as soon as you can.
