Además, en la modalidad virtual este tutor/a se encargará de asesorar al alumnado sobre aquellos aspectos del funcionamiento de la Facultad y/o del grado como: programas de movilidad, prácticas externas, trabajo fin de grado, servicio de biblioteca, entre otros.
• Además el alumnado recibirá apoyo a través de la Unidad de Gestión de la Facultad, así como de la Unidad de Gestión Académica del Campus de Lugo, tanto de manera presencial como telemática. También cuentan con el apoyo de la Oficina de Información Universitaria para cualquier cuestión genérica que deseen consultar.
• A nivel técnico, será el Centro de Atención a Usuarios (CAU) el responsable de dar soporte para el acceso a la red, y también de recibir y solucionar incidencias de acceso al Campus Virtual, en contacto con el Centro de Tecnologías para el Aprendizaje.
• el Área de Orientación Laboral de la USC tiene un papel importante en todo lo relacionado con la inserción laboral de los universitarios:
o información sobre recursos de interés profesional, actividades formativas en habilidades para la búsqueda de empleo, intermediación entre las empresas y estudiantes, y titulados/as, etc.
• Para los alumnos de último curso del Grado se colaborará con el Proyecto Mentoring de la USC. Dicho proyecto pone en contacto a los mentorizados (alumnos de último año de grado, pero también de máster y egresados) con los mentores (directivos/as de empresas, profesionales o emprendedores/as con amplio bagaje profesional y preparación de áreas afines al alumnado que participa), con el fin de que estos puedan orientarlos y apoyarlos en el desarrollo de su carrera profesional. De esta forma los mentores comparten con los mentorizados sus conocimientos y experiencias, aconsejándolos para que puedan explotar mejor sus fortalezas y aprovechar las oportunidades de su entorno.
• Los estudiantes con necesidades especiales cuentan con el Servicio de Participación e Integración Universitaria (SEPIU) que se encarga de la coordinación y puesta en marcha de las actuaciones necesarias para favorecer la igualdad y la equidad entre todos los miembros de la comunidad universitaria.

When a degree suspension occurs, the USC guarantees the adequate development of teachings that were initiated by their students until its suspension. For that, the Government Council approves the criteria related with the admission of new degree entry registration and the gradual suspension of teaching impartation, among others.
If the suspended degree is substituted for a similar one —modifying the nature of the degree—, the new degree regulations will set the conditions to facilitate students the continuity of the new degree’s studies. These regulations will also set subject equivalences in both programs.

The entrance tests to the three Galician universities (Baccalaureate Evaluation for access to the University (ABAU) and for people over 25 and 45 years old) are organized by the Interuniversity Commission of Galicia (CIUG).
