First steps when arriving

When arriving at our Faculty, go to the Logistic Support and Information Point (SLIPI). Here you must identify yourself as an exchange student and provide your name and student number (NIU). To avoid queues and long waits, we advise you to register one or two days before classes start. You will then be able to start your classes according to the timetable of the courses you have chosen.

 

Student Card

You should collect or process your student card at the Banco Santander located in Plaça Cívica or at any of the points set up on campus (during the first week of classes).
