Université Libre de Bruxelles - Bridoux Fund

Bridoux Fund

You get financial help from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) if you study for a bachelor's degree there and your family has a low income. ULB's Student Social Service pays the fund out individually, topping up support for students who cannot cover the cost of their studies. The exact amount and how long it runs are not published. It is reserved for students in three fields.
