application procedure of K1 in Belgium.
0:09
If I'm not mistaken, this is the highest
0:11
ranking university in Belgium. And I'm
0:13
kind of planning to make application
0:14
tutorials for some of the highest
0:16
ranking universities in different
0:17
countries. So, if you have any specific
0:19
university that you're interested in
0:21
seeing the application procedure of,
0:23
just leave it in the comment section and
0:25
I'll do my best. As always, we can just
0:27
start by googling the name of the
0:29
university or you can do what I do and
0:31
Google the name of the university with
0:33
global scholarships.com like this and
0:35
let's say enter. And here you can see
0:38
our page for this university where you
0:41
can get like a lot of information very
0:43
very quickly like where it is the
0:45
population how many scholarships there
0:47

0:50
So this is for international students.
0:52
There are seven of them. Uh you can see
0:55
like scroll down to see all of the
0:56

1:02
we have some scholarship recipients from
1:04
different countries and we try to bring
1:07
you their comments on this university.
1:09
Someone with an Arasmus Manda
1:11
scholarship, another person with a
1:13
mastermind scholarship. You can just
1:15
click here to read their stories and you
1:17
know get real insights directly from
1:19
people who have earned these
1:20
scholarships. And we have admissions
1:22
pages basically links for those which
1:24
we're going to use in a second. We have
1:26
admission deadline and we have tition
1:28
fees. As you can see they are pretty
1:30
affordable quite affordable compared to
1:32
like a lot of universities in the United
1:34
States etc etc. Anyway this is the
1:35
university. If you have any questions
1:37
you can just leave them here in the
1:38
comment section and Hanley who is the
1:40
founder of global scholarships answers
1:43
all of them. All of them. Okay. So we
1:47
come here and click on international
1:48
students admission page for bachelors
1:51
which is going to take us to the
1:53
university's page. Study format. What
1:55
are you looking for? K1 offers a wide
1:58
range of options to study at our
2:00
university. The procedure you need to
2:01
follow to apply. Apply and register will
2:04
depend on the type of study program. You
2:06
get the idea. Here we choose bachelor.
2:08
And here we have stepby-step guide. So
2:11
first step is to browse our programs and
2:13
get informed. Check the administration
2:15
requirements, check the application
2:17
window. Check the tuition fees and
2:18
scholarship options for your program and
2:21
collect the requested documents and then
2:23
start your application which is what
2:24
we're going to do. Uh so like the first
2:26
five steps of course like you need to go
2:29
through and get informed by yourself. I
2:30
cannot go through pretty much everything
2:32
here like browsing our programs, degree
2:35
programs we have, they have their lists,
2:38
admission requirements which is pretty
2:40
important like very important for a lot
2:42
of people who will come from outside
2:44
Belgium and I guess from outside of EU
2:47
check the application window of course
2:49
that will change depending on when
2:52
you're watching this compared to what
2:54
when I'm doing it. Check the tuition
2:55
fees. We have tuition fee calculator
2:57
scholarship database. Sometimes these
2:59
scholarship databases do give you
3:02
scholarships that are not from this
3:04
university like from sometimes from
3:07
external institutions etc. Collect the
3:09
requested documents and start your
3:11
application. Log in to the web app via
3:14
your browser and complete your personal
3:16
data. Upload the required documents and
3:18
pay the application fee. So here we
3:20
click on application instructions. This
3:22
is basically the starting your
3:24
application section. So we have like
3:26
these six steps before we start our
3:28
application and when we start our
3:30
application we have eight steps uh what
3:34
on what to do basically these are the
3:36
things that we're going to go through
3:38
today uh for all of these others uh
3:41
you're going to have to do yourself
3:42
because it kind of depends on your
3:43
program where you're from etc. I mean
3:45
you can just check the list of their
3:47
degree programs. We're just going to
3:49
we're just going to apply for let's say
3:50
bachelor philosophy, right? Okay. So,
3:54
here we have step one. Create your
3:55
account, apply for your programs, upload
3:59
the requested documents, pay the
4:01
application fees, submit your
4:03
application, follow up on your
4:04
application, etc., etc. So, uh first is
4:08
to create an account, which is usually
4:10
what we do on our tutorials. Okay.
4:13
Please provide your email address or
4:15
username. I'm going to use a temporary
4:17
email here. So basically I'm going to
4:18
give them a lot of fake information here
4:21
but that's kind of okay uh since I'm not
4:24
going to send the application like I'm
4:25
not going to submit the application in
4:27
the end. This is just for demonstration.
4:29
Right. So they did not detect an account
4:32
with our email that we gave them. So
4:35
they directed us to create an account
4:37
page. So basic basically registry. This
4:40
is a one-time registration. Afterwards
4:42
you can use this account for other
4:43
applications. So give a name. Let's just
4:46
give them some madeup information.
4:47
Private email, private mobile phone,
4:50
which is optional. So, I'm not going to
4:51
give them my phone. Okay. Um, you can
4:55
choose to set your password now or to do
4:58
this later. We can take your take you to
5:00
the application now. I mean, this is my
5:02
personal device. I want to set my
5:04
password now. I'm going to choose that.
5:06
The activation code has been sent to
5:08
your mailbox. This is the activation
5:10
code they've sent me. Now, let's choose
5:12
a password. Repeat password. and let's
5:15
click on next. Okay, your password was
5:18
successfully configured and will be
5:19
active in a few moments. Go to admission
5:23
KU 11 association. Let's click on that
5:25
and we are done. We are in the portal
5:27

motivation as well because this is just
11:34
this is just specific to bachelor
11:37
philosophy anyway I'm just going to
11:39
upload some random stuff here. But of
11:42
course, you need to make sure that yours

11:46
Reading and writing assignment. We
11:48
download uploaded something. And then
11:50
photo. It has to be JPEG. Must be a
11:53
color photo. It is really weird to hear
11:56
a color photo in 2025. Face the camera
11:59
directly with full face in view. Your
12:01
face should fill at least 2/3 of the
12:04
photo. They're very specific about this.
12:06
There should be no other people in the
12:08
photo. Uh, it must be clearly
12:10
recognizable. Opt for a simple
12:11
background without distractions. I'm
12:13
just going to upload something random.
12:15
All right, it is uploaded. Here you can
12:17
click and see your photo. It downloads
12:19
it. Anyway, diplomas and transcriptions
12:22
of academic records.
12:24
Let's upload something random for this
12:26
as well. Proof of proficiency in
12:28
English. You can find a list of all
12:31
English proficiency tests that are
12:32
accepted by KU1 here. Passport, of
12:35

good one. Uh CV. Okay. And then you have
12:41
the optional ones, grading table,
12:43
others, and proof of payment of the
12:45
application fee. If you used the page
12:47
we've just seen, uh you don't have to do
12:49
this. And then here, obslan, which is
12:54
okay, I guess, in why is it why is it in
12:57
used to be in English? Anyway, doesn't
12:59
really matter because we are kind of
13:01
done here. All we need to do is just
13:03
click on the thing like you say I hereby
13:06
confirm blah blah blah and then here
13:09
click on submit which I'm not going to
13:10
do again. I don't want to send them a
13:12
fake application. Anyway, that's pretty
13:14
much it for this uh application. It got
13:16
a little weird in the end and turned to
13:19
fleish. I'm not sure why. Uh but as you
13:20
can see it's kind of quite uh
13:22
straightforward. After you apply like
13:24
you get information on what you should
13:26
do next etc etc which you can see see
13:30
here. submit your application, follow up
13:32
on your application assessment, outcome
13:34
of your application, if admitted, what's
13:36
next? My guess is to go there and start
13:39
studying. Yeah. Anyway, um thank you for
