An association can be created for a variety of reasons:
- Advocate students' rights.
- Pursue cultural interests.
- Advocate university assets and values.
- Further progress in science, art or sports.
The associations' activities will be carried out within a spirit of freedom, independence, representativeness and genuine participation among their members while abiding at all times by the University's regulations and general legislation.
For an association to be recognized, it must meet the following requirements:
- Its sphere of activity is the UOC.
- All of its members are UOC students.
- It has formed itself as an association and is registered at the UOC in accordance with current legislation and has entered as such in a register of associations that is valid within Spain (for example, the Government of Catalonia's Associations Register).
- No association will be recognized that discriminates in its activity and foundation on the grounds of origin, race, sex, religion, opinion or any other personal or social condition or circumstance, or whose activity fosters or justifies hate or violence against natural or legal persons, or does not abide by the UOC's Code of Ethics.
Before creating a new association, you can consult the UOC's list of existing associations above.
If you want to form a new association, you must send a registration form to the office of the vice president responsible for student affairs through the Committees Service, enclosing the following documentation:
- The association's founding charter.
- A certificate of the agreement by the association's Governing Board or by all of the members of the student group to apply for inclusion in the UOC's Associations Register.

- A document that certifies inclusion in the Government of Catalonia's Associations Register or equivalent register of another autonomous community or of the State, giving the registration number allocated, if applicable.
- A document certifying formation of the governing board.
- The association's official address and tax identification number.
The association will be included in the UOC's Register as soon as such inclusion is approved by the relevant office of the vice president. The agreement authorizing inclusion in the register will be notified to the association.
Inclusion in the register implies compliance with the UOC's regulations on associations and other applicable regulations.
Once creation of the association has been approved by the relevant office of the vice president, you will need to fill in the form below to request a space on the Campus, providing the following information:
