JAKARTA – The candidate for Queen of Belgium or Princess Elisabeth has completed her education at the Harvard Kennedy School, United States. She completed a master’s degree in Public Policy at the university for two years.
Quoted from People, on Friday, April 24, 2026, Princess Elisabeth plans to attend Harvard’s graduation ceremony on May 27 and 28. She will be accompanied by her parents, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde.
Princess Elisabeth was accepted at Harvard in 2024. However, her return last year was a topic of discussion because of President Donald Trump’s ban on foreign nationals entering the United States on visas to study at Harvard.
The princess had previously turned down special consideration because of her royal status, so she had to follow the ban. During her education, Princess Elisabeth did not want to receive any special treatment.
However, a federal judge eventually blocked the ban, paving the way for Princess Elisabeth to continue her education at Harvard. Several moments of the princess attending Harvard were also shared on the official Instagram account of the Belgian Royal Family.
Meanwhile, after completing her education at Harvard, Princess Elisabeth is planned to return to Belgium to deepen her official role as the country’s future queen.
Princess Elisabeth, also known as the Duchess of Brabant, is the eldest of her parents’ four children. She will make history by becoming Belgium’s first queen to rule the country, replacing her father King Philippe.
