Personal comments
courses were in english so no problems at all. university staff and profesorssors also have spoken english, ao no problems in the academic communication. outside the university people use french and dutch, the later i cant speak and actually didnt need that at all. i could speak french, so it was quite easy to communicate in daily situatios. actually, a lot of belgians speek english, so i didnt have problems related with language at all.
