Here, you can find questions and motivations from other students who are studying computer sciences, mathematics and/or physics at the KULeuven. There is also a General FAQ page with mainly general academic-related questions. If you have any questions, you can always send them to ejw@wina.be.

Huh, EJW? You see it everywhere ... But who or what is behind this strange word? Well, EJW is a committee for first-year students, this group is part of the student association Wina. If you read this, then you are probably a future freshman who will study math, physics or computer science at the KUL, who also wants to be well received at the university. Good news! You are at the right place!

Wina is a student association based on the faculties: Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Additional courses at KU Leuven. Wina organises the so called CuDi that ensures that you can get your textbooks easily and cheaply and numerous fun activities throughout the year. Examples of these activities are the famous Winabar (every Wednesday evening), food stands on campus, cantuses, LAN parties, the baptism and hazing of the freshmen, and so on.

If you are not from Leuven or if you don't know Leuven well, it can indeed be a bit tricky when you don't know your way around. But, as you can see, this page will explain just that. In addition to the explanation that can be found here, you will also have a tour of the campus on the first day. On top of that we will be organising activities to go to the Oude Markt, the first Winabar and the first cantus together. So you certainly won't get lost!
