Multi-Purpose University Card

On this site you will find all you need to know about your University Card and the University of Salamanca Information Points.

What is the University Card?

The University Card is a smart card developed by the University of Salamanca in collaboration with the Banco Santander, which offers various services, both within and outside the University.

Where can I apply for it?

Students:

In the Secretary's Office of your Centre either upon registration or at any other moment by completing the application form and attaching an original photograph.

University staff:

In the Administration and Service Office for PDI or in the Administration and Service Office (Patio de Escuelas, 1), by completing the application form and attaching an original photograph.

Remember that in no way is it obligatory to open an account with Banco Santander to obtain the University Card. This would only be necessary if you wish to use the card as a 4B type credit card.
