Specific meetings scheduled by Schools and Faculties

Some (but not all) Schools and Faculties organize a second meeting specifically for their exchange students.

The information at these meetings is complementary to the institutional welcome. The information is oriented more towards academic information specific to that School or Faculty. If your university asks you for a certificate of arrival signed by the UPV, this is the best time to bring it (on paper) and ask them to sign it.

If your School or Faculty at the UPV organizes a second meeting, you will be informed of the date and time by email.
