CHECKLIST FOR APPLYING

TIPS for submitting a successful application

REMEMBER: you are applying for a place on the VUELA 2026 programme and NOT for specific projects/experiences; volunteering is about meeting the needs of others. We guarantee you will have an incredible experience.

When should I apply for a place? During the period specified by each university or school. Don't leave it until the last minute. (See section: Funding options and conditions above).
Where do I apply for a place? Through the links for your university or school at the bottom of this page. Each university has its own link.
What do I need to apply for a place? As a general rule, you will need to fill in a form, write a letter of motivation (each centre will specify its content) and provide a CV with an up-to-date photo. Take your time to prepare a good letter of motivation. It is not just a formality. It is designed to help you in the application process and to help the universities in the selection process.
Check the projects for which you could be selected. We have designed an interactive mind map with basic information to make it easier for you to consult.
