A plan of activities designed to help you get the most out of your university experience

6 min

Did you know that university life is not just about classes, exams, and hours spent studying? At Stephouse, our activity plan is designed to give you a complete experience: from the moment you arrive to your last days here. It's not just about having a place to sleep, but about feeling part of a community where you learn, connect, and have a great time. We'll explain in detail how these initiatives work and why they make a difference.

StepWeek: the welcome week that breaks the ice

There's nothing like arriving in September, feeling nervous and excited, and finding yourself at StepWeek: a welcome week full of events, group dynamics, and evening activities. Here you'll get to know your classmates, leaving your shyness behind, discover the common areas (such as coworking and the gym), and immerse yourself in the Stephouse philosophy in a natural way. Remember that all residents go through the same thing, so you're already in good company.

StepFest and StepStage: music, dance, and unique events

And what would a university residence be without parties and cultural events? Throughout the year, we organize StepFest, themed sessions with DJs, live music, and a festival atmosphere. We also have StepStage, live concerts by artists right in your residence. It's an opportunity to discover new talent... or show off your own.

StepSnow, StepExchange, and StepOut: let's go traveling!

Can you imagine getting away for a weekend with your new friends? At Stephouse, we know that experiences outside your usual routine are also an essential part of university life. With StepSnow, you can enjoy organized trips to ski resorts, ideal for unwinding and having fun with your classmates in the heart of nature. On the other hand, StepExchange is a program that makes it easy to change your Stephouse residence for a season and live in another of the cities where we have a location. And for those looking for adrenaline-pumping activities, StepOut offers a whole weekend with the entire StepHouse community at an amusement park.

StepTalks, StepLife, and StepCast: educational and useful

In addition to leisure, we think about your development. StepTalks are talks with experts in emotional management, time management, and personal finance. And with StepLife, we offer workshops to help you develop your soft skills for personal growth. With StepCast, you can participate in a podcast and make your voice heard. All of this perfectly complements the community approach you already know.

StepLeague and Grand Final, team passion

At Stephouse, we know that sport is key to your well-being, integration, and enjoyment. That's why we created StepLeague, an internal soccer, paddle tennis, and volleyball competition that promotes friendship, sport, and active participation. The highlight is the Grand Final, an annual weekend event that brings together the best teams for a day full of excitement, camaraderie, and celebration, closing the academic year with a big sports party.

Comprehensive wellness: StepCare, StepWell, and StepBalance

Taking care of your emotional and physical well-being is essential while you study. That's why we've designed a service like StepCare, which offers you one free session with a psychologist and nutritionist per month. StepWell focuses on promoting healthy habits through webinars, courses on well-being and health, and access to a community so you always feel supported. And finally, with StepBalance, we offer regular yoga, Pilates, or guided meditation classes, ideal for relaxing after a long day of studying. Together, these activities ensure that your stay at Stephouse is not only comfortable, but also contributes to your personal balance and mental health.

Why is this activity plan so important?

This comprehensive activity plan is not just entertainment; it is carefully designed to help each student make the most of their time at university, helping them to grow personally, connect with other people, and maintain a healthy balance between study and leisure. Here are the main reasons why participating in these initiatives can make a big difference to your student experience:

  • Facilitates integration: People from different careers and cities come together thanks to social activities.
  • Support mental health: Well-being is not optional: sports, creativity, or meditation reduce stress.
  • Reinforces useful skills: Talks and workshops prepare any student for the real world, boosting their employability.
  • Help discover the city: Local excursions enrich the connection with the local culture.
Connect with your city... and with Stephouse

From day one, our residents enjoy spaces designed for studying and relaxing: coworking areas, terraces, gyms, multimedia rooms, and green spaces. These are included in your stay, along with all utilities, internet, and 24/7 security. Discover them in the overview of our residences, such as Madrid Plaza de España or Seville, where every corner is ready for your daily activities.

We invite you to visit the section on residences to learn about the spaces and services available at each location. You can also view photos and read reviews to get an idea of what the Stephouse experience is like.

The Stephouse activity plan isn't an extra; it's part of your university life. So if you want a complete university experience, where you can study, grow, connect, and have fun, Stephouse is more than just a residence: it's the home that accompanies you during this stage of your life.
