Come to UFV and enjoy an international experience that goes beyond the classroom. Here you’ll find an open campus, a welcoming community, and the opportunity to grow academically, personally, and culturally in a unique environment.
UFV places each individual at the center and supports them throughout their educational journey, taking into account their talents, passions, interests, and personal circumstances. Our students never navigate their college experience alone; they are accompanied by dedicated faculty and mentors whose mission is to support them in their personal growth, help them reach their full potential, and guide them toward achieving their goals.
If you are an exchange student with specific needs, please let us know as soon as possible so we can organise the best possible organise for organise arrival.
This service aims to promote the presence, participation, and support of UFV students with disabilities and autism spectrum disorder (Autismo y Asperger). SAPNE offers a wide range of assistance and resources to students (tanto nacionales como internacionales), staff, and faculty to foster inclusion and academic success for students with special needs.
The goal of this service is to support university students in their learning process through academic guidance and one-on-one meetings. We offer personalized sessions for both students who are struggling academically and those who want to make the most of their studies and their time in college. For students with specific educational support needs, we conduct psycho-educational assessments and make adjustments to teaching methods, learning strategies, and assessment systems.
It offers psychological counseling and a nutrition service to UFV families and students
When it comes to mental health, the UFV Office of International Affairs offers support through a new psychological counseling service provided by the “Sauce Psicología” Center in Madrid. This service consists of four free therapy sessions in Spanish and English for international students who need psychological support. UFV is highly committed to this issue, and the Office of International Relations (ORI) manages and provides this service.

Purchasing health insurance while studying abroad is essential to protecting your health and well-being. It gives you access to quality medical care in the event of illness or injury, helping you avoid exorbitant medical bills.
All UFV exchange students participating in international mobility programs (Erasmus o Bilateral) must have health insurance, travel assistance, and repatriation insurance in case of an accident at the time of application. In addition, UFV may require liability insurance for certain types of mobility programs (prácticas). Any of the three types of insurance mentioned must cover the entire duration of the stay at UFV.
If you are a citizen of the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, all you need is your European Health Insurance Card, although you can also purchase private insurance. Click here to apply for your card.
The European Health Insurance Card is not a substitute for travel insurance. It does not cover private healthcare or expenses incurred in certain circumstances, such as repatriation, certain surgical procedures, return flights to your home country, or the loss or theft of your belongings. Therefore, we recommend that students also purchase supplemental insurance (véase la información sobre el “seguro médico privado”).
Supplementary insurance covers, for example, hospitalization in the event of an accident, including medical evacuation to Spain, or travel and accommodation for family members, etc.
Before visiting doctors or hospitals, check whether they are part of the public health system and accept the European Health Insurance Card (TSE). You can find a list of public hospitals and health centers on the Spanish Ministry of Health’s website
If you are NOT a citizen of the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, you are required to have private health insurance that meets the following requirements:
Those who wish to participate in an internship will also need liability insurance, which can be included in their health insurance policy or purchased separately.
