All students enrolled in one of the Berklee Valencia Summer Programs (BV-CAMP, Music Production and Summer Performance Program) will be required to show proof of a health insurance policy for the duration of their studies at Berklee prior to the start of the program. Please note that:

• Students who are Spanish citizens/nationals shall upload a copy of their Tarjeta Sanitaria Individual, or their European Health Insurance Card.
• Students who are not Spanish citizens/nationals shall upload either a copy of their European Health Insurance Card (if they are EU nationals) or a copy of an adequate and valid travel medical insurance policy which complies with EU regulations, to cover any expenses which might arise in connection with repatriation for medical reasons, urgent medical attention and/or emergency hospital treatment or death, during their stay. You may use this information posted on the official website of the Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores, Unión Europea y Cooperación (Consulate of Washington) as a reference to indicate what would be in compliance with EU regulations.

Berklee is committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for your student to achieve their personal, academic, and artistic goals. Therefore, as a community member, you are responsible for reviewing, understanding, and abiding by the policies and regulations outlined in the Valencia Student Agreement, as well as all other Berklee policies and applicable laws, including the understanding that Berklee follows internal procedures, including policies and procedures for on-call staff, which allow professional staff tasked with this responsibility to know who to communicate with around incidents that may occur. Please note that Berklee reserves the right to amend and revise these policies at any time. Specific to the supervision of your student for the duration of the program, it is important that, as the parent/legal guardian, you understand and abide by the following policies:

• The Berklee Valencia Music Production Summer Program is an academic program conducted strictly on-campus. It is not a residential program, and participants are required to arrange their own accommodations off-campus in non-Berklee-sponsored housing.
• Parents/legal guardians shall ensure proper supervision and accompaniment of minors (participants under 18 years of age, in any case, or still a minor, according to their National Law) outside of the official program hours (9:00h to 18:00/21:00), as well as during travel to and from Valencia.
• Berklee does not provide supervision outside of program hours and is not responsible for participants beyond the designated official program hours.
• Participants under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent-legal guardian OR must have signed an authorization from their parent and/or legal guardian authorizing their participation in the program without adult supervision. The authorization form will populate for students under 18 years of age, as mentioned on the “Personal Student Agreement” section below.
• Participants are responsible for their own lunch each day. Additional food may be provided by Berklee for special events. Participants with food allergies must register with the Accessibility Resources for Students office in Boston so these can be taken into consideration by the team in Valencia before the start of the program. This information will be handled confidentially and used solely for necessary health and safety measures. The canteen services and vending machines available on campus are operated by third parties and therefore Berklee does not have information regarding the food offered by such services and cannot guarantee food allergies and/or accommodations related to those services.

Complete the Music Production Summer Program Student Information form. Berklee needs the following information for administration purposes during the program, which includes a passport number and emergency contact information. Please note that minors must also provide the passport number for one of their parents/legal guardians.

Complete Student Information Form

Soon after completing the form above, you will receive a DocuSign email from Student Affairs giving you access to a personal Student Agreement, which you will need to complete and digitally sign. The Student Agreement includes Image Rights and Minor Consent in addition to other acknowledgements and authorizations. Note that for students who are minors, the parents/legal guardians will first receive the DocuSign email containing the Student Agreement, therefore it is imperative that students provide a valid email address for their parent/legal guardian within the Emergency Contact Information form.

Complete the below form, which includes the process of submitting a headshot. This is an essential step to access the Valencia campus.

ID photo submission

Berklee Valencia does not offer student housing during the Music Production Summer Program, but there are many options available for students to choose from. Visit our website for more information.

We recommend all students have a valid passport or travel document at least four to six months before your summer program in Spain. The passport or travel document must be valid at least three to six months beyond the planned date of departure. For certain nationalities, a valid visa may also be required. Please review Conditions for Entry into Spain for more information on visa requirements.

Students must have a laptop that meets the following minimum technical specifications:

• Mac: MacBook Air M2 or newer, with at least 8GB of RAM
• Windows: Windows 10/11 (64-bit) with an Intel Core i3 processor (2GHz or faster recommended) and 8GB of RAM

Headphones are optional but highly recommended.

Software Requirements

Students must have a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) installed on their laptops. Recommended DAWs include Pro Tools Studio EDU (highly recommended, has a 1 year subscription fee), Reaper (offers a fully functional 60-day evaluation version available for free download), Logic (Mac only), Ableton Live among others. If you are unable to acquire Pro Tools Studio, we highly recommend Reaper, which offers a fully functional 60-day evaluation version available for free download.

Instruments

Outside of class, students have opportunities to participate in musical activities or practice independently. While large instruments like pianos and drum shells are provided (cymbals and sticks not included), students should plan to bring any other instruments they require.

Having these items with you will allow you to participate in hands-on activities, practice sessions, and work on projects and assignments. It will also ensure that you can fully immerse yourself in the learning experience without being distracted by missing equipment.

All official campus policies, essential resources, and key information about life in Valencia can be found in the Berklee Valencia Student Handbook. Before arriving, we also recommend reviewing the following:

Participant's personal email:

• Students may have used a non-Gmail account for the purposes of registration in the program. However, all students are required to have a Gmail account as the materials for all classes will be accessed through Google Classroom. A Gmail account is also required for the purposes of submitting the Personal Information form aforementioned. Note, the Gmail email address created should be associated with the registered participant in the program, since this will be the main point of contact between our different offices and the student during their enrollment. iCloud accounts are not considered Gmail accounts.

Create Gmail account

Parent / Legal guardian personal email:

• Note that, in the case of students who are minors, it is the email address stated in the Personal Information form that will first receive the DocuSign email containing the Student Agreement, therefore students must provide a valid email address for parents / legal guardians here.

All students and parents/legal guardians should continue to check the emails used to enroll in the program for important information. Students will receive a detailed check-in email with information regarding their assigned arrival location and program schedule one to two weeks prior to the start date of their program.
