FAP — Federação Académica do Porto (Porto Academic Federation)
An umbrella body for student organisations at Porto’s universities and colleges. Besides festivities and sport, it runs its own Academia 24 residences and represents students in their dealings with institutions and the state. You get a place in its residences not through the federation itself but through the SAS of your own institution.
Where you come across it. Looking for student accommodation in Porto, student discounts and events.
The federation only manages the residences — residents are selected and allocated by the institution’s social services. Writing to the federation directly is pointless if your institution has not signed an agreement with it.
