Student review [#10800] for Veterinary Medicine
at Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

I’ve been at ULPGC as a Erasmus student for half a year and I can highly recommend the university! I never had problems with the Organisation system, it’s quite modern (after the registration you can do everything online without any problem) and offers you access to the presentations from the classes, your schedule, the library and the wide range of extracurricular activities. You can participate in many sport and cultural activities, from weekly activities, a gym up to excursions on the weekend. The faculty of veterinary is well equipped and wonderfully located next to the sea (only disadvantage is that it’s outside town, so you have to go by bus approx. 20min). As an Erasmus student you don’t have any problem to find accommodation, either you search a shared flat on your own or you live in one of the universities student residencies. There are many Erasmus students coming to ULPGC each year, so you’ll always find international students and many events offered for them (which you can also join as local students :)). Most of the classes are held in Spanish, and it depends on the professor if they can/ want to speak English to you, so it’s definitively easier if you know some Spanish. To conclude, I really enjoyed my time there and I would recommend studying there, not only for the obvious advantages (sun, beach) but also for the university itself!
