What Visitors Can Find on the Universidad de Antioquia Website (udea.edu.co)

Updated

The Universidad de Antioquia website (udea.edu.co) is the official online home of the university, and its homepage surfaces a handful of high-priority entry points: admission announcements (convocatorias), a special admission call, an invitation to participate in the institutional development plan for 2028–2038, a donation invitation, and video content. If you arrive at the site looking for enrollment information, institutional news, or ways to engage with the university, these are the items the homepage puts in front of you first.

Admission and enrollment entry points

The most prominent calls to action on the homepage relate to admissions:

  • Admission announcements (Convocatoria de admisión) — the general call for prospective students.
  • Special admission call (Convocatoria de admisión especial) — a separate track for applicants who qualify under special admission criteria.

Both appear as direct links, so a visitor interested in applying can move from the homepage to the relevant admission information without navigating a deep menu.

Institutional planning and participation

The site links to the Plan de Desarrollo Institucional 2028–2038 (Institutional Development Plan), presented with an invitation to "learn more and participate." This is the university's long-range strategic planning document, and the link signals that the institution opens parts of that process to community input.

Donations and multimedia

Two further homepage elements are worth noting:

  • A donation invitation ("La UdeA invita a donar"), indicating the university solicits philanthropic support through the site.
  • Video content, including an "Inscribirme" (enroll/register) video, embedded in the page.

What the homepage is designed to do

The layout functions as a navigation hub rather than a deep information repository. Its headings and calls to action point outward to specific sections — admissions, planning, giving, and media — so the fastest way to use the site is to start from whichever of these entry points matches your goal, then follow the link into that section for details.

If your interest is applying, start with the admission convocatoria links. If your interest is the university's direction or how to take part, the development plan link is the relevant entry. For general institutional information and news, the site's broader navigation (beyond the homepage highlights) is where that content lives.
