Borrow a laptop through the Social Services

You will need a laptop for education at Ghent University.

For most courses, a well-functioning basic laptop is sufficient, for some courses a more advanced model is necessary.

This can certainly mean a big chunk out your budget at the start of the academic year.

Ghent University provides the option of borrowing a laptop  for a short period (maximum 12 months) via the Social Services.

Who is eligible?

Student at Ghent University with a diploma contract of at least 27 credits (exception: diploma year or special status).

Registered for a bachelor's degree, master's degree, educational master's degree, preparatory course or linking course.

Until obtaining a 1st Master's degree.

When do you apply?

• After your (re)registration as a student at Ghent University
• As soon as there is a need to borrow a laptop
