Albalat is a University Residence associated to the University of Valencia.

Albalat provides support to its residents, and helps them to achieve their maximum potential, during their university years.

At Albalat we provide all the basic necessities for the residents: accommodation, meals and a laundry service, thus creating an appropriate environment for study, work and friendship. Living in Albalat makes it easier to maximise ones performance, as there are lecturers and students from different degree courses and areas of knowledge. Residents learn to share experiences , to exchange their knowledge in different subjects, to share, to help, to serve and to receive help in an environment of respect and solidarity; in a place where, if you wish, you have the possibility to receive Christian formation.

In Albalat we try to create a homely atmosphere, residents cooperate in the care of the residence and work together as a family unit. They, according with their hobbies and preferences, contribute in the organization of cultural activities such as: debates, concerts, musical auditions, theatre plays, cultural gatherings and film sessions. Actually, the Residence of Albalat has a very long prestigious history. For us, the prestige of the Residence is not as important, as the confidence of the residents and their families.

We can summarize the basis of the Residence in four words: TO BE BETTER PEOPLE.

In Albalat we want to create an educational environment based on mutual confidence, a greater level of work, a spirit of companionship between all the residents and opportunities to grow in cultural knowledge. We are convinced of that old idea that says: "education is the capacity of man to improve others and himself". And this is, finally, the great task of Albalat, to help all the people who are part of the Residence to better them.
