Is Waregem getting too small for you? Flanders too tiny for your aspirations? Is our complex country of Belgium not even varied enough for your multifaceted ambitions? Are you dreaming of studying abroad? Getting to know other European students? Good news! Your dreams can come true with Erasmus+. 

We know it sounds adventurous and takes a bit of courage, but... . As Mark Twain said a long time ago:

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails.  Explore, Dream, Discover!

Make sure you do not miss this unique opportunity. 

I'm not sure yet, can you convince me? 

We know we will not convince you. Maybe your fellow students that took part in the program last year, will. Take a look at our evaluation page. 174 participants from last year gave their opinion! More than 90% of the participants would do this again and more than 87% would strongly recommend this educational adventure!!
