Selected students will be exempt from following the legal terminology course (B2), the European institutional law course (B2), the European material law course (B3) and one course in legal language (B3).

In block 3, students selected for the Maastricht programme do not have to take the European substantive law course and are exempted from choosing a course of law in a foreign language.

The faculty offers students from the Language and Mobility option the chance to do the last year of their bachelor of law at the University of Ghent within the framework of an Erasmus Belgica agreement. Since the number of places is limited, a selection is organised at the beginning of Block 2 during the first week of the academic year. The selected students will have to take the Legal terminology and text analysis course and the Practice of legal language course in Dutch.

Notice : the jury can grant an exception for a change in option during the bachelor's degree; in this case, the bachelor's degree in law is issued with no option.
