- Master [120] in Management (GEST2M) — official programme page, 2026-2027 catalogue edition. UPDATED 2026-09-04: this profile previously cited UCLouvain's 2025-2026 edition (…/en-prog-2025-gest2m), which is still live and still says "Study programme 2025-2026" at the top; the 2026-2027 edition exists at the same slug with the year advanced, and en-prog-2027-gest2m is not published yet (500). SCOPE CHECKED the same read: this page carries the programme's access requirements and structure and states NO application deadline of any kind — UCLouvain publishes those centrally, not per programme ↗ — UCLouvain — Louvain School of Management
- UCLouvain enrolment — registration fee amount (2026/27 income-scaled minerval reform; EU €1,194 full / non-EEA €5,369). RE-READ 2026-09-09 for the fee-convention sweep, and the whole page rather than the tuition rows. Still "currently pending approval by the Government of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation" nine weeks on. EU/assimilated: €1,194.00 full, €835.00 intermediate, €374.00 low-income, €0.00 for FWB grant recipients. Non-EU additional contribution €4,175 "in accordance with ARES Circular No. 2026-001", giving €5,369. TWO CHARGES OUTSIDE THE MINERVAL, both quoted verbatim: "Students who have a non-EU nationality and are not assimilated to Belgian students (except for specialised master's degrees, doctorates, international joint degrees, or Erasmus Mundus exchanges) will be asked to pay a €200 application fee after confirming their application online. If their application for enrolment is accepted, this fee will be deducted from the enrolment fees for the programme in which they are enrolled. In all other cases, this fee will not be refunded." And: "In addition to these fees, there are additional costs, particularly for sports membership. Please note that students receiving a scholarship are still liable for these costs." The page gives the ARES circular's date as 12 February 2025 in the body and 12 February 2026 in its annex list, so the circular is cited here by number only ↗ — UCLouvain
- UCLouvain enrolment — application deadlines. SCOPE CHECKED 2026-09-04: this is a UNIVERSITY-WIDE calendar and it is keyed to nationality and diploma type, not to a programme — the table is headed "General deadlines" under "Prepare your application", and says "These dates vary according to your nationality and the type of application". The 2026-2027 rows read: 31 March 2026 for a non-EU national not resident in Belgium and requiring a visa; 13 September 2026 for an EU/visa-exempt national with an eligible foreign diploma, and for a non-EU national resident in Belgium not requiring a visa; 30 September 2026 for an EU/visa-exempt national whose entry qualification is a Belgian diploma, IBO or Schola Europaea. The page names NO faculty or programme exceptions, and the LSM programme page publishes no dates of its own, so these ARE this programme's deadlines ↗ — UCLouvain
