It has been a very intense week so far here at University CEU Cardenal Herrera<\/a> as we have officially welcomed our new students to our community, the starting signal for the Academic Year 2015\/16: three campuses, more than 470 new international students and a calendar full of activities…thank you to everyone who has made it possible!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome Days are a classic in the first days of September, a week of orientation and events for newly accepted sudents who start their academic journey with us in one of our official degrees<\/a>. They will be spending from 4 to 6 years with us so they deserve a warm welcome to help them hit the ground in this new and unknown environment, don’t you think?<\/p>\n

International Welcome<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our Welcome Days<\/a> started on September 7 with a special welcome to our international students, with a record-breaking number <\/em>of attendees and nationalities this year: more than 470 students from Taiwan, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Colombia or Sweden among others!<\/p>\n

You could feel a bit of nostalgia and nervousness in their faces which were rapidly turned into excitement and happiness when they finally met our International team and [ especially ] their new classmates. The schedule of activities included several informative sessions and presentations to introduce them to the University and prepare them for their lives here.<\/p>\n

\"\"The day started with students proceeding to the different registration desks that had been installed on the first floor of Luis Campos G\u00f3rriz building, where they got an update on their documentation status and received a welcome bag with some goodies in it! The registration was followed by several sessions designed to introduce them to the campus and the special services offered to international students, ending with a tour of the university where they finally met their coordinators.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, their parents and relatives attended a special session carried out by representatives of the university, where they were introduced to our university’s internationalization strategy and integration plan<\/em>, a more tailored approached to their specific information needs.<\/p>\n\r\n
