I want to live in Residential Colleges
Admission

The admission process by Internet only applies to new Residential College students.

First Step

  • If you have not yet started your process at Universidad de las Américas Puebla, please go to: https://inscripciones.udlap.mx/RegistroCandidato/

  • Once you have your student number and your password you may enter the link http://inscripciones.udlap.mx/SolicitudColegioAlumno and fill out your Residential College application form.

  • We will confirm reception of completely filled out forms the following working day, via email.

  • It is important to point out that the reservation of the type of room you request is subject to availability so once the reception is confirmed and the reservation request has been approved, you must complete the second and third steps in less than 15 days, or the reservation of the room you want will not be guaranteed.

  • Do not make any payments before receiving confirmation of availability from the reservations area of the Residential Colleges.

Second Step

  • When the reservation request is approved, we will send you the bases of admission and cancellation to Residential Colleges via email.

  • You must print out this document, sign in blue ink in the margin of each page, fill out the information requested on page 6, and sign your full name at the end of the document.

  • If you are a minor, your guardian must also sign and annex a copy of his/her official identification.

  • Once the document is duly signed, scan all pages and send them to the following email: informes.colegios@udlap.mx

  • Do not make any payments until the Reservations Office confirms availability at the College.

Third Step

  • Signed the bases of admission and cancellation, the applicant must receive the confirmation email from the Coordination of Reservations of Residential Schools to cover the Single Fee for Admission to Colleges corresponding to the amount of $5,125.00, in some of the following banking institutions:

    Bancomer: 32495
    Banamex: Branch 870 account 5164-2
    HSBC: Agreement RAP 8132
    Banorte: Business Payment Concentration 94742
    Santander: Reference Payment Agreement 3560
    In the name of: Fundacion Universidad de las Americas Puebla
    Reference: 00 + ID (student number) + DV (check digit)


  • The $5,125.00 payment IS A NON-REFUNDABLE FEE.

  • It is very important that you send your proof of payment to informes.colegios@udlap.mx, otherwise we will not be able to verify that the payment has been made and we will be unable to reserve your room.

Once the three steps are complete, we will send you an email to confirm your reservation, and we will give you the date in which we will inform you of your room number.
