2026/27 · Priced for this course · International students

KU Leuven does not publish a static per-programme tuition figure anywhere on its site (see the cost note for this course) — the interactive tuition-fee tool linked from its official fees page is the only way to get a programme-specific number. This figure was read directly off that tool with a non-EEA nationality (United States) selected, and matches exactly the third of the four fixed-cost/per-credit bands KU Leuven publishes on its tuition fee breakdown page (fixed cost EUR 1,726.92 + 60 credits x EUR 64.77/credit = EUR 5,613.12), corroborating the reading. The rate applies for the 2026-2027 academic year the student starts in and stays fixed for the whole programme (subject to yearly indexation).

Show how this figure was checked

KU Leuven publishes its 2026-2027 tuition tariffs as a table of four bands — each a fixed cost plus an amount per credit, billed on 60 credits — but does not publish anywhere which band a given programme and nationality falls into: that is only revealed by its interactive tuition-fee tool. No programme-specific figure is therefore citable from a static page, so no headline fee is recorded here rather than guessing a band. The top band, EUR 9,493.92 for a 60-credit year, is the one KU Leuven's Institute of Philosophy quotes for non-EEA citizens, but that is a different faculty and is not evidence for this degree.

BSc · 3 years · Business & Management, Business Analytics

International tuition

From the official calculator

2026/27 · Priced for this course · International students

KU Leuven does not publish a static per-programme tuition figure anywhere on its site — the interactive tuition-fee tool linked from its official fees page is the only way to get a programme-specific number (see also the Bachelor of Business Administration course, which explains the same gap). This figure was read directly off that tool with a non-EEA nationality (United States) selected. In the tool the programme is listed under its full formal name, "Business Engineering (joint degree with UCLouvain-Saint-Louis Bruxelles)" — confirmed as the same Bachelor of Business Engineering programme by its own KU Leuven page, which states it "is a joint English-taught programme organised by the Faculty of Economics and Business of KU Leuven and the Faculty of Economics, Social and Political Sciences and Communication of UCLouvain Saint-Louis – Bruxelles", with students attending courses and exams at both institutions for a joint degree. Unlike the flat fixed-cost-plus-per-credit bands published on KU Leuven's own tuition fee breakdown page for its standard programmes, this joint degree carries its own distinct flat rate not matching any of those four bands, consistent with it being priced separately as a joint arrangement with a non-Flemish university.

International tuition

€9,493.92 per year

~€28,500 for the whole 3 years, at today's fee
From the official calculator

2026/27 · Priced for this course · International students

KU Leuven does not publish a static per-programme tuition figure anywhere on its site (the same gap already documented for this university's Business Administration and Business Engineering bachelor's entries) — the interactive tuition-fee tool linked from its official fees page is the only way to get a programme-specific number. This figure was read directly off that tool with a non-EEA nationality (United States) selected, and matches exactly the top of the four fixed-cost/per-credit bands KU Leuven publishes on its tuition fee breakdown page (fixed cost EUR 2,376.72 + 60 credits x EUR 118.62/credit = EUR 9,493.92), corroborating the reading. Selecting an EU/EEA nationality (Germany) instead drops the same tool to EUR 1,181.40/year, the lowest of the four bands -- confirming this programme carries the standard non-EEA international surcharge rather than a reduced or special rate. The rate applies for the 2026-2027 academic year the student starts in and stays fixed for the whole programme (subject to yearly indexation).

Accommodation

€525–€668per month

KU Leuven Stuvo (student services) residence halls, 2026-2027 all-in monthly rent for the two room categories: standard rooms and comfort rooms. Stuvo also lets studios and apartments, priced separately on the same page at €718-854 and €854-1,295 a month, which are not covered by this range.

  • Room — furnished with bed, mattress, wardrobe, table and chair; rate at most residences€525
  • Room — same furnishing, rate at the dearer residences€553
  • Comfort room (adds a private shower) — smaller room size€648
  • Comfort room (adds a private shower) — larger room size€668

The rent is all-in: it covers the room and its furniture, water, electricity and heating, internet, cleaning of shared areas and the second residence tax. No rental deposit is charged on rooms or comfort rooms (studios and apartments do take one). Rooms are furnished with a bed, mattress, wardrobe, table and chair; comfort rooms add a private shower. The standard contract runs 10 months to the close of the second semester, can be extended over the summer at the same monthly rent, and some rooms may be rented for a single semester subject to availability.

Published by the university itself, not a live listings price. Actual cost depends on room type, availability and when you apply.
