The University of Santiago de Compostela has a university participation and integration service (SEPIU) (http://www.usc.es/gl/servizos/sepiu) which works on the integration of people with discapacities and provides support for the development of curricular adaptations, as well as a protocol for their integration in the university community.
The USC has designed a reception plan in every center based on several points:
a) A special informative session given by the dean's team on the first day of the academic year, in which details about the functioning of the Faculty and general orientations about the study plan are explained.
b) This session concludes with the assignment to each group of ten students a student-tutor that stays with them during the whole afternoon and keeps them up to date with the academic and university life. The tutoring begins the first day of the academic year and goes on for the whole academic year.
The participation of the administration and services personnel in the student support and orientation system should also be mentioned.
The USC has a student-tutor program for the undergraduate degrees, so that final year students, after receiving training from the University, can perform orientational tasks to students initiating their studies.
