Subjects and Registration

8. Will I be given guidance in the ORI as to what subjects I should choose?

     

To be given academic guidance you should get in touch with your International Relations coordinator. When you arrive you will be given an information table with details on how to contact your coordinator.

9. When should I register?

     

There is a timetable for registration, which must be respected by students, based on the first letter of their family name or the study programme to which they belong. This timetable will be given to students when they arrive in Santander. Even so, the registration will not begin until the Welcome and Orientation Sessions have finished. It is possible to go to classes for some days before registering.

10. Where can I get the registration form?

     

The form will be given to students only by the ORI staff.

11. Can the Learning Agreement be used as a registration form?

     

Those students who have to use a Learning Agreement because it is a requirement of the exchange programme that they belong to, may easily confuse the two forms due to their similarity in appearance. However, the registration form does not require the coordinator’s signature, whereas the Learning Agreement does. Each of these forms is for a different purpose.

12. Where should I register for my courses?

     

In the ORI, within the periods stipulated on the registration timetable. Make sure about the number of ECTS credits that each subject gives, since this figure does not always coincide with that of the UC credits. Only our ECTS Guide (on our Webpage) will provide you with reliable information on the number of ECTS credits.

13. Can I change the courses I have registered for?

     

Yes, during the period for change of subject that appears on the registration. It is necessary to fill out a specific form if you wish to do so.

14. Once I have completed my registration, do I have to go back to the ORI?

     

Yes, you must go back to pick up your registration receipt and your student accreditation. The registration receipt is necessary for you to be able to check which courses you have registered for (registration code and subject) and to detect any possible problems in the registration; the student accreditation is a document which you will need whenever you need to prove that you are an exchange student at the University of Cantabria.
