Housing

The ETF Peda (= campus) includes student housing which is located in the same complex as the classrooms and offices.
The campus has 45 rooms and 19 studios in different price ranges available for students. Studios are equipped with a loft, toilet and showers. The larger studios also have a kitchen.

Rental prizes depend upon size and facilities. Rent is paid monthly. In principle, a room is rented for 10 or 12 months. The Peda is intended primarily for ETF students, but it is also open to other Christian students studying in Leuven.
The campus is governed by the pedacommissie (= housing committee), who is subordinate to the Board of Trustees of the ETF. The Peda has its own bylaws.

How to rent a room at the campus?

Once accepted as a student at the ETF, in early June you will be informed and you will automatically receive an application form for a room in the Peda.
In mid-June the pedacommissie decides on applications. We do our best to assign rooms to all new students who have applied for one.
The rooms are allocated in order of notification, taking into account the students' personal preferences as much as possible. Studios are as a priority allocated to married couples and older students. Of course we can never guarantee that every applicant will eventually be assigned a room in the Peda.
When the student signs the rental agreement, (s)he pays a deposit of one month's rent and a one time fee of € 82. This is for the city tax and common services (use of washing machine, etc.).
If you are not enrolled as a student at the ETF, but would like to rent a room in the Peda, please contact Mr. Bernard Vantieghem via e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

When can I move in to my room?

If you have been allocated a room or studio,  you can generally move in during the introduction weekend. This will take place for both BA and MA students from 24-26 September 2011. Upon arrival at the weekend, your lease will be signed and you will receive the key to your room. After registering for studies at the ETF you will automatically receive an invitation for this weekend in August.

Living in Leuven

The student is not required to live on campus. In general, a sufficient number of affordable rooms are available for students. For more information, contact: www.passe-partout.be (in Dutch or French) or www.kuleuven.ac.be/accommodation (in English).
