1. Language proficiency

• Language of instruction as determining factor: All UGent bachelor programmes are taught in Dutch. English is only used in some Master programmes (international programmes). The common language in the Doctoral Schools is English.

• Overview of levels and accepted proofs of proficiency
  

2. Basic diploma

Admission is granted on the basis of a diploma, irrelevant of nationality. Most qualifications obtained abroad do not grant direct admission. This means that the diploma is not automatically recognised as equivalent to a Flemish diploma and that admission can be granted after an individual application procedure.

• Level of chosen study programme as determining factor: consult the overview of diploma requirements per level of study programme.

• Chinese candidates must also pass the APS-screening.
