STUDENT NEWSLETTER

This week marks the arrival of Unav United Week, the most international event of the year. Bella Alba, 4th year student of International Relations and native of Manila (Philippines), has been involved in its organization.

As an international student, I know what it is like to arrive in a completely new place and have to adapt. One of the values of this University is the international outreach and the ability to live together, so I want to contribute from committee to help students who may need some guidance and a helping hand to adapt.
