ReFlex-status
Do you have a disability, a learning disorder, a chronic illness, are you combining your studies with a full-time or part-time job, are you starting your own business, or do you perhaps find yourself in a situation that makes studying less obvious? Then you are eligible for the ReFlex-status.
ReFlex stands for reasonable flexibility. It involves making necessary adjustments to the teaching and examination regulations, to give an equal chance during evaluations. More time, tolerance for spelling mistakes, extra help to understand exam questions, being allowed to miss class, etc.
VUB goes inclusive
VUB is committed to making higher education accessible to all. We find it important that every student can develop to their full potential according to their own talents. Therefore, starting from academic year 2023-2024, a new inclusive education policy will be launched, in which some of the most requested examination accommodations will be applied by default to every student, regardless of whether you have a ReFlex status or not.
