1. The applicant submits his or her application from 18 February 2026 to 31 March 2026
All required documents must be submitted to the University before 1st April. Once all the documents have been uploaded, you must validate your application, otherwise it will not be examined.
Note:
If you wish to apply to a quota track (veterinary medicine, physical therapy, speech therapy, medicine and dental sciences), you are not subject to the 31 March deadline. You must comply with the terms and conditions (draw, entrance exam, etc.).
2. The applicant submits his or her own application online
Applications for which an intermediary is identified will be automatically refused. You will be asked to provide your postal address in your country of origin, your private e-mail address and your cell phone number. You may be contacted by the President of the Jury or by the Enrollment and Admissions Department via Whatsapp or any other video conferencing application.
Indeed, we notice that students, mainly of Cameroonian origin, are victims of fraud by intermediaries who offer their services for a fee in order to facilitate their admission and who sometimes produce false documents, which results in the exclusion of the candidate concerned from any institution of higher education for a period of 3 years.
3. The candidate completes and signs an attestation of awareness of the measures decided by the ULiège in the context of the fight against registration fraud
4. The applicant may submit only one application per academic year
You can therefore only apply for one program.
5. The candidate must have a 1st cycle degree of higher education
If the jury of the program concerned requires proof of passing a standardised test, the following proofs will be accepted:
DALF, DELF, TEF or TCF if the language of instruction is French.
TOEFL iBT, IELTS, Cambridge FCE or Cambridge CAE, if the language of instruction is English (only tests with a photo that are less than 2 years old will be accepted).
If you wish to begin teacher training (Master's degree in teaching, section 4 or 5), you must provide proof of C1 level proficiency in French.
Here are the tests and scores accepted (corresponding to B2)

More strict or specific criteria (in terms of scores and/or accepted tests) may be set by some Faculties. Students are invited to consult the academic conditions available below.
7. The candidate pays an administrative fee of 200 euros
If you are authorised to register for the academic year in question, this amount will be deducted from registration fees.

Assimilated student, doctoral students, students coming under an international co-degree program and holders of an FWB higher diploma are exempt from paying this administrative fee.
If you consider yourself an assimilated student, you will only be exempted from payment of this fee if you can prove this by providing the required documents.
8. The candidate provides the University with a financing plan
The candidate must provide a financing plan (official proof required) that attests to sufficient resources to carry out his/her studies: €10,000 + registration fee (depending on the candidate's nationality).
If, at the end of the application process, the candidate receives an authorisation to register, he/she may request the deposit of the required legal amount in a blocked account from the University in order to prove his/her solvency to obtain a visa for Belgium.
