LSM does not charge specific additional tuition fees for the CEMS MIM. You only need to pay the UCLouvain tuition fees.

As part of your CEMS program, you will have to fulfill an internship and one (or two) terms abroad. No additional tuition will be asked for your term abroad. You only pay the UCLouvain tuition fee, not the host university's. Mobility grants are available to every student. They are intended to co-fund the additional costs of your mobility; they will not cover the entire costs of your exchange program. Monthly rates range from 200€ to 550€ depending on the country of your mobility.

McKinsey Study Allowance & International Chair Christiane and Jacques Berghmans

Two generous study allowances of 5.000€ each (one from McKinsey and one from the International Chair Christiane and Jacques Berghmans) will be offered to 2 CEMS first-year students who benefit from a scholarship from the French Community of Belgium or UCLouvain (“étudiant boursier”). These allowances are given to cover the extra cost of the CEMS program from Annual Block 1, Term 2 (e.g. travels, housing abroad, seminars..).

To apply as a CEMS LSM first-year student, please send an email to the CEMS LSM Programme Manager (lsm-cems@uclouvain.be) as soon as you get a positive response from Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and by end of December of your first year at the latest. The CEMS LSM Office will get back to you with more details.
