I studied at the University College of Ghent
In the past when filling in papers it was hard to fill in the translation of 'Hogeschool'. High School has a different meaning abroad. I just filled in I studied at the Academy.
In June our school finally decided the translated name. We are now officially 'University College Ghent'
So that makes me a Master in Art, option Photography, graduated at the University College Ghent, at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.
With an extra post-graduation diploma of Advanced Studies in Art at the Bezalel Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Israel, Jerusalem.
(Pfew, breathe first..)
Would suit well on a business card: 'Master in Art'
LOL!

AFAIK 'College' is the translation for 'Hogeschool' and 'University' for Universiteit. But I could be wrong :)
