Alternative Admission Procedures

If someone who doesn’t meet the general admission requirements wants to enrol for a bachelor's programme at one of the institutions of the Ghent University Association (AUGent), they can take part in the alternative admission procedure. Those who successfully pass this procedure, receive a Certificate of Admission, which gives them access to all Dutch-language Bachelor programmes of the higher education institutions of the AUGent.
