Overview
Leuven is a dynamic and thriving city in the Flemish region of Belgium, and is a true university town. It is the ideal starting point to discover the rest of the country: Brussels is just around the corner 20km east of Leuven, the coast is only a 1.5 hour train ride away and Antwerp, Bruges, Ghent and Liege are just a stone’s throw away. Leuven has something to appeal to everyone: a lively nightlife, interesting and stunning historic sites, two seemingly endless shopping streets, and of course Belgian chocolate for any chocolate lovers out there! Leuven offers a variety of housing options to students, ranging from residence halls to studio apartments, and Leuven’s Housing Services can assist students in their search for accommodation.
