Welcome @ Mia Upkot
Hi! I'm Seppe, coach of Mia Upkot. That’s +120 students in one big community. From relaxing in the garden to eating and cooking together in the kitchens. There’s always something going on. We're right by Gent-Sint-Pieters Station and just a 10-minute bike ride to the city centre.

Your upkot coach
At Upkot, he fixes everything for his students. Practical issues, personal questions or time for a community party? Nothing’s too much. Workday done? Helmet on, cruising through Ghent on his motorbike, then home to his family (where his second superhero shift begins).
Upkot community
Upkot community
Living together means creating everyday memories that last a lifetime. Spilling spaghetti and feeding the Upkot chickens. Silent disco in the kitchen. Pre-drinks and post-party hangovers. Laughing till you cry. Netflix & chill. The Big Upkot Party and a quick football match.
Welcome to our community.

There are also plenty of additional facilities, including a snooker table, spacious terraces in the communal areas and even a secure bike storage facility.
Mia Upkot features cosy kitchens and chillrooms on every floor. The building also has a secure bicycle storage area, a laundry room, a large, green garden and even a snooker and table tennis table. Mia Upkot has another bonus: the building boasts spacious communal terraces.

Mia Upkot is located behind Ghent-Sint-Pieters station; it’s just an 11-minute walk to the rear of the station, or a mere 5 minutes by bike. If you prefer, you can also reach the station by tram (T1), with the tram stop situated almost right outside the building. Ghent’s historic centre is also easily accessible by tram or bike.
The Upkot coach is responsible for the social activities organised in the building. Many public holidays are celebrated at Upkot, for example. Think of: a fun Christmas market, a visit from Sinterklaas, a welcome drink with all the students, etc. In addition, the coach also organises smaller, fun activities for the students throughout the year. Feel free to plan your own activities or organise something fun with other students.
In Mia Upkot, 121 students are having the time of their lifes.
