5. Access to the UVic Virtual Campus
DO NOT create a UVic Virtual Campus account! It will be created for you.
After the course registration once in Vic, Double Degree students should receive a message at their non-UVic email address (to the one provided in their mobility application form), with the username and instructions on how to receive a password. With this credentials, students will be able to login to the UVic Virtual Campus.
The Virtual Campus is an intranet with academic, administrative and other information for the university community and includes tools for communication, such as email, and learning, browsing and dynamic content: general university information and details of specific courses, communication of general interest, virtual classrooms (Moodle), your academic record, etc.
6. Academic information and documentation
For information on academic matters (calendar, courses, timetables, etc.), the student should contact the Internationalisation Unit (international academic coordinator) at their UVic Faculty.
Note: the enrolment at UVic-UCC will take place once in Vic. Double Degree students will receive information and instructions for registration from our Academic Administrative Office.
7. Insurance
Based on our expertise in welcoming foreign students, we strongly recommend that before arrival at UVic all our international students take out comprehensive insurance with worldwide cover for every conceivable risk during your stay in Spain.
More information at Insurance.
9. Visa (for Non-EU students)
At UVic-UCC we do not take care of the student’s Visa application process. However, here you have some information that can be of help.
We advise you to check the Entry Requirements to Spain, either on the Ministry for Home Affairs website or the Embassy or Consular Office of Spain in your country.
We recommend you to apply for the student/internship Visa at the Spanish Embassy from your current country of residence.
IMPORTANT: we do advise you against entering Spain with a Tourist Visa, since once in Spain the process to legalise your stay for studies/internship could be long, complicated and it could even mean to hire a private legal service.
1. Orientation Days
Before the beginning of the academic semester some Orientation Days will be organised for all international students.
- Spring semester 2024/25: from 22 to 24 January 2025
2. Enrolment at UVic-UCC
The enrolment at UVic-UCC will take place during the Orientation Days, and after the academic informative session with the UVic international academic coordinator. The Double Degree students will receive information and instructions for the enrolment from our Academic Administrative Office.
