Crown Princess Elisabeth<\/strong> of Belgium is ready to embark on the next chapter of her life.<\/p>\n

According to a statement<\/a> from the Belgian Royal Palace, the 18-year-old will begin her training at the Royal Military Academy in Brussels this fall, the same school that her father, King Philippe<\/strong>, attended from 1978 to 1981. Her cousin and uncle were also educated at the well-regarded academy.<\/p>\n

Not only is she following in her father’s footsteps, Princess Elisabeth is also being celebrated for her admission, as it is a highly competitive application process. In order to get in, applicants need to pass the basic military test before taking a challenging exam that tests their knowledge in mathematics and French and Dutch written language tests. From there, the academy whittles down their choices to 150 students. <\/p>\n

When classes commence in the fall, the Princess, who is next in line for the thrown, will learn about the four components of the Belgian defense: Army, Air Force, Navy and Medical.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The Princess will specifically study social and military sciences for one year, thus adding to her impressive resume that already includes an International Baccalaureate diploma. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

For the past year, the future Queen has worked towards her IB diploma at the UWC Wales, which Dutch King Willem-Alexander<\/strong> attended as well. However, the coronavirus forced the princess to return to the Belgian palace, where she is finishing up her schooling. <\/p>\n

In the meantime, Elisabeth and her family continue to serve the Belgian people, with Elisabeth and her three siblings calling to check-in on the elderly in their country and more. <\/p>\n

As the Princess said on her 18th birthday, “The country can count on me.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
