My daughter is a KU Leuven student and is finishing her Master’s in July 2026. Her graduation ceremony is on July 2, 2026.

On April 25, 2026, she informed her landlord in writing that she planned to leave her student studio on July 7, 2026, because her studies are ending. After that, they started looking for a replacement tenant and did not ask for any KU Leuven proof at that time, so she assumed she could provide the relevant document once it became officially available.

Now the landlord says this does not fall under Article 64 §1, 2° of the Flemish Housing Rental Decree because she had not yet officially completed her studies or deregistered when she gave notice. They are therefore claiming a penalty equal to two months’ rent.

I’m trying to understand whether that interpretation is correct.

A few questions:

1. Does graduation / completion of studies count as “termination of studies” under Article 64 §1, 2°?
2. Can a student give notice before the official graduation date if it is already clear that the studies are ending, and then provide proof later when it becomes available?
3. What document is normally accepted as proof for this, graduation confirmation, degree completion, or deregistration?
4. If notice is given before graduation and proof is provided later, is that notice still valid?
5. In this kind of situation, should the result be a 2-month notice period rather than a separate 2-month penalty?

If anyone has dealt with something similar, or knows how this is usually interpreted by the courts, I’d really appreciate your input.

I loaded $10 USD onto both platforms and tested the same prompt using the Flash and Pro models. Here are the results:

Prompt:
“Create a single self-contained index.html using Three.js only (no NPM or build tools) that runs directly in the browser as a 3D first-person walking demo. The scene should be a neon cyberpunk night city with 60+ procedural skyscraper-style buildings featuring glowing emissive windows, a reflective wet asphalt ground, animated neon billboards, atmospheric fog, drifting particles, and a dark star-filled gradient sky. Implement immersive FPS controls with pointer lock mouse look, WASD movement, Shift sprinting, a camera height of 1.7, and capsule-vs-box collision so the player cannot walk through buildings.”

Mimo 2.5

• Time: 2.5 min
• Tokens: 15k
• Cost: $0.01
• Result: The page loaded, but it failed to generate the actual city. The attempt was mostly unsuccessful.

DeepSeek V4 Flash

• Time: 7 min
• Tokens: 45k
• Cost: $0.02
• Result: It generated a working 3D city and navigation functioned correctly, though the buildings looked somewhat odd.

Mimo 2.5 Pro

• Time: 1.3 min
• Tokens: 8.2k
• Cost: $0.02
• Result: The page loaded properly, the city looked fairly realistic, navigation worked well, and collision detection prevented walking through buildings. Overall, it performed very well.

DeepSeek V4 Pro

• Time: 8 min
• Tokens: 36k
• Cost: $0.04
• Result: The page was heavier and loaded more slowly, roughly double the size of the Mimo 2.5 Pro output. However, the city looked highly realistic with impressive lighting effects, navigation worked properly, and the buildings were very detailed. Overall, it produced the best visual result.
