Academic Support

Succeeding in an academic program is about more than being ready for the first day of class - it's about feeling confident with the trajectory of your degree program, having the necessary study skills to effectively prepare for assignments, and having the credentials needed to enter the degree program in the first place! 

VUB is happy to help you prepare for academic environments through our academic support services. 
Successful people and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential. 
- John Maxwell
