A morning dedicated to connection, education, and Salesian charisma: 164 fifth-year students from the Salesian High School of Pristina, Kosovo, visited the Pontifical Salesian University (UPS) on April 10th, accompanied by the director of the institution, the deputy director, and a group of teachers. This event reaffirmed the international vocation of UPS and its educational mission focused on youth around the world.

The large Kosovar group was welcomed by the university's Communication and Development Office. Students were introduced to the degree programs, activities, services, and university life at UPS.

After the orientation session, they toured the campus, library, and community spaces, where they experienced firsthand the characteristic spirit of hospitality and familiarity of the Salesian environment.

For the soon-to-be graduates, the day represented a valuable opportunity for guidance and discovery. For the Pontifical Salesian University, it was further confirmation of its mission: to be a home that shapes "good Christians and honest citizens," as Don Bosco envisioned, in an increasingly global, multicultural, and interconnected context.

The visit concluded with an invitation to the students to consider UPS as a potential step in their academic and personal journey.
