The programme, which is organised by the Information and Promotion Service for Students (Sedi), shows future university students the educational offer and the services and centres of the Universitat de València. As a complement to the different actions of the programme, the Sedi will prepare and distribute the Guide to Degrees and Access - with the University's curricula and information on access and admission, including cut-off notes and weightings.
