Personal comments
VUB is really an international university, I have classmates from different countrys, and all the people in campus can speak english. So, I never have problem with communication in university. And even if the native language of this country is not English, most of the local people here can also speak English, and I'm also studing French now. So, at least we can understand each other. In a word, basically I don't have language problem in belgium.
