A special Orientation session is organized before the beginning of each semester (see Academic Calendar). The Orientation is divided into two segments: General Orientation and Academic Orientation. A typical Orientation session contains the following:

- What to see and do in Valencia
- Transportation to the university
- Local customs
- Timetables
- Living in Spain
- Registration for classes
- Academic Calendar
- Grading system
- A tour of the Center

International Students have two options for accommodation: homestay or share a flat with other students. On the other hand, if the student wants information on homestays or sharing a flat, they should get in touch with the private accommodation service for foreign students which we use, University World, www.university-world.net.
